I really loved The Manicurist's Daughter. This was such a multifaceted read - the immigration experience, early childhood parental loss, grief, family struggles, searching for one's self, travel and yummy food! Susan went through so much in her life and it's great to get exposed to her trials and tribulations without having to experience them for yourself. This book also puts an interesting perspective on plastic surgery and the pursuit of beauty.
Susan's life story is unique and it's great that she was able to share it with readers like myself. I found this memoir so well written ans gripping, which usually is not the case for me when I read memoirs that aren't funny. I highly recommend this to anyone that is looking for an engaging read that's off the beaten path that will stay with you.
Also, the cover is so fitting - it quickly evokes a nail salon!
