Days of Distraction by Alexandra Chang
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I really enjoyed this debut novel! It had some great commentary on race as it follows an Asian American woman tech writer. There was a huge focus on interracial relationships which I found very interesting and not discussed enough in literary fiction. My only issue was that at times the writing felt choppy because of the insertion of article clippings and research the protagonist was doing. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is into slow literary fiction books with themes of family, love and relationships. Thanks to Ecco books for the e-ARC. All opinions are my own.
