A Bánh Mì for Two
by Trinity Nguyen
Loveable characters:
Yes
Diverse cast of characters:
Yes
Such a sweet romance, but also an emotional journey of Vivi trying to reconnect with her mom’s family in Vietnam. I loved the process of her puzzling things together with Lan to find her family, going off only a photograph and the help of Lan’s connections and food stall community in Sài Gòn. My main issue with the audiobook format is that Vivi’s voice actress read the chapters pretty quickly, while Lan’s voice actress read much more slowly, which made me struggle to find a good speed to listen to this at :’)
Graphic: Grief, Death of parent
Moderate: Terminal illness, Abandonment, War
