The Best We Could Do by Thi Bui

adventurous emotional informative inspiring reflective sad fast-paced

 was good, but could have been SO much better. The beginning and the END had so much heart, so much reflection, such honesty - it blew me away. I just don't know what happened in the middle. It was just - this happened, then this happened, then this happened. Just info info info. Hardly any reflection. 
Maybe I'm being too harsh, but I really didn't feel for Thi's father and mother while they went through possibly one of the most harrowing times people can go through. 
The last chapter though. Made me emotional, made me cry, will make me return.
