➡I stole this book from a friend, the good news is: they let me keep it
➡A Japanese/American girl named Satmoi stuggles to fit in. Her dad has been called to the japanese vs american war, he died. All the Japenese people in America got sent into a harsh camp called Manzanar. As Satomi gets released, she learns how to adapt in the real world, and she finds her true identity.

I loved the history. The story is tragic and I felt for the characters. It took me awhile to finish it..I kept putting it down and picking it back up.. I really can't put a finger on why.. at times I felt the characters and writing were too modern and out of place.. but that was pretty much the point of the book. A young coming of age Japanese girl trying to find her place in the USA during WW2 and after. So..😁

I'm settling in to bed to finish my book.. the mister prefers to relax by painting. I can't wait until we can get back into a house with a studio space. #artist #creative

Tonight's sleepy time reading in bed since my current read The Stand is too heavy.. lol. #weakarms #tootired
