To me this was a meh book, a take it or leave it. It was on my radar to read and when it came up at my library, I took a chance. It was a quick read where I wasn't really thinking or to engaged in it. It had all the typical components of a romance read, but they were not super engaging. The cultural component was interesting, and I learned from that. The mother-daughter relationship was fairly two-dimensional and only had one central component, that to me felt eye-roll worth, but I also understand that this can be true in certain cases. I am hesitant to recommend this, I think it would work for certain readers, but not all.
Moderate: Racism and Sexism
Minor: Death
