Minor Feelings: An Asian American Reckoning by Cathy Park Hong

wilhelmina_reads's review against another edition

5.0

Extremely pleased that my first read of June is a five star!

Hong's way of story-telling is a lot more gripping than that of other, similar books I've read. I found the chapter about Theresa Cha to be my favorite. Something about it just really connected with me. Will be reading Dictee soon hopefully.

I thought this essay collection was really eye opening and thought provoking. I learned a lot of Asian American history through the lens of Cathy Park Hong, an incredible writer. There were some essays and topics that I wasn’t sure where they fit with the rest of the collection; and felt like some of the essays could have been delineated a little more. Overall a fascinating listen.

One time the drive thru cashier at Taco Bell assumed I was Japanese and said “Domo Arigato” then got my order wrong
