ambershelf 's review for:
The Story Game
by Shze-Hui Tjoa
4.5/5 gifted by the publisher
With experimental styles written as storytelling between Tjoa and her younger sister, and interspersed with essays on "homecoming", dating white men, greenwashing, and more, GAME is an intimate and unique memoir reflecting Tjoa's mental health journey. The format took me a bit to get used to, but the latter half shines through and provides perspectives as to why GAME is written in a circuitous way, reflecting one's multi-layered psyche when processing trauma and a non-linear journey to healing. I deeply appreciate Tjoa sharing her vulnerability and framing GAME as a work-in-progress to redefine herself apart from her childhood scars.
