"I am the manicurist’s daughter, and this is our story."
While this is the last line in the excerpt, I found it so incredibly powerful that it needed to be mentioned first. Starting this book with the authors own experiences with western medicine, at the same age her mother was when she died, was an enrapturing parallel that immediately drew me in. The writing is descriptive and smooth without being flowery and I can't wait to read the rest!
