A review by katiemack
Real Americans by Rachel Khong
4.0
I received an eARC of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
The scope of this novel--covering three generations' worth of family history and trauma--is vast, so naturally there are so many topics to cover that it would be impossible to go into depth about all of them. Despite my knowing this, however, I was disappointed that the novel didn't quite deliver on that front. Nonetheless, I'm impressed Khong's storytelling and enjoyed the distinct voices of the three characters (Lily, May, and Nick).
