Lykke og glede by Amy Tan

Did not finish book. Stopped at 36%.
I read a Norwegian translation of the book. I loved the first stories, but the way it is written/translated just makes it drag a bit for me. I will try it in English for sure, because I do want to read this book and I liked the stories

The chemistry between Kiki and Malakai was sooo good. I was having so much fun reading this. The third act drama was a bit silly in my opinion, but it was short-lived, and the ending was great!

I feel bad about giving the book such a low rating, but I really disliked the way the spicy scenes were written. Other than that, the plot and other parts of the story itself were pretty enjoyable.

This was the right book for me at the right time. The story is vast, taking place during a war, but it still felt like a intimate character study. I got way too invested, but I just couldn't put the book down
