Jasmine Nights: The Classic Coming of Age Novel of Thailand in the 1960s | 
pickA semi-autobiographical coming of age story set in #Thailand.
The main character “Justin” lives with his aunts and servants, and refuses to speak his native tongue. After his pet chameleon dies he decides to become a chameleon himself, learning his language, eating Thai food, and making friends.
Overall I enjoyed this, but there is a lot about discovering sex, and the MCs are 12/13 which made it a bit uncomfortable at times…
