The House of Kwa

I don’t believe in rating biographies and memoirs since this is someone telling their story while being vulnerable and the history of other’s lives (everyone deserves 5 stars for that), and therefore, I have no right to critique or have an opinion. Instead, I prefer to share how I felt while reading.

The very first chapter Kwa had me fully absorbed in her world as it was turned on its head the moment she received a notification that her father was suing her over an inheritance from her aunt. From there, I was transported back through four generations of the Kwa family and their journeys and hardships.

House of Kwa was definitely an emotional story that held onto my heart, and it held a lot tighter because I knew it was really happening to someone. But, even through everything difficult and tragic Mimi had so much strength and hope. Truly a story I took so much from!

Thank you, HarperCollins 360 for this gifted copy in exchange for my honest opinions.
