Nicole Chung tells her story about how as a premature baby, she was given up for adoption by her Korean parents and adopted by a white couple in a rural town. Being the only Asian face in her town, she often about her birth family and their reasons for giving her up.
Although I enjoyed her story, somehow I felt like there was a little lack of substance, and felt that maybe she was a little young to write this story, that I want to know what happens in another 20 years, what happens with her own children and how her relationship develops with her birth family and adopted parents. 3/5

That's a good observation, about the author likely being too young to write a substantial story. There are things that only age and experience brings, which is why, while youths may be technically good at something, they lack that which only time can produce.
