[cc] Hi friends, I missed BookTube so much and I hope you enjoyed this video. I follow the author Qian Julie Wang on Instagram, and every time she shares something related to this book I feel like I gain some new perspectives on how this book connects with me. I think it is worth reading and rereading and thinking about the time we lived in, and how many things in our life we take for granted, and what we should be aware of. Highly recommend this book! :)
