The Great Wall of Lucy Wu by Wendy Wan-Long Shang
5.0
This was a surprisingly excellent feel good story. I mean, it was 100% predictable, but that didn’t take away from the genuineness the author wrote with, how heartfelt it was, and how adorable I found the entire book to be.
Lucy was one of my favorite protagonists in recent memory, primarily because I really related to her. She was incredibly headstrong and stubborn and, unfortunately, I’ve been described that way many a time. She was a remarkably picky eater, got incredibly angry about sharing her room, lashed out after her parents forced her to do Chinese school instead of basketball. I was mad for Lucy, and I was easily able to imagine myself getting furious in her shoes, so I really loved how relatable she was.
