Helpful Score: 1
Let's just say that as a female ABC (american-born Chinese) this book hit really close to home. With the exception of localities, I was amused to find the protagonist, Lindsey, could very well be my identical clone, right down to the age. This book contains lots of "asian-centric" references that unfortunately, you have to be Asian to really understand. The jokes do start to wear thin, though, and if it was starting to annoy me, then I wonder how annoyed a non-Chinese reader would feel. Still, I did like Lindsey and especially the fact her love for family still came through despite all the eye-rolling bits about Asian culture. This was definitely chick lit/light reading.
