I low-key loved this. She took a married couple and showed the difficulties of their relationship in two bite-sized vacations. You first join them hosting each set of parents at the Jersey Shore. Wang highlighted the difficulties with in-laws in mixed-race marriages. Several years later the couple vacations alone in the Catskills, but nosy neighbors in the next bungalow bring out tensions in their now long-distance marriage.

An interracial couple deals with her Chinese immigrant parents, his right wing parents, and everyone‘s opinion about their choice to not have kids. This felt very topical and relatable to me as a left wing childfree person in our current moment.

Soubhiville Sounds very relatable! I got a package from Powell‘s today that I‘m guessing is from you? I opened it enough to see the books weren‘t wrapped but not what they were, then stuck the whole box on a high shelf 🙂. Thank you! According to my PO receipt your package should arrive today too. Everything in it is wrapped. 2w
Hooked_on_books @Soubhiville Yep, that‘s from me! I‘ll also be sending you a package from here tomorrow in which all will be wrapped. I‘m glad the first one arrived safely. 2w
