"One of my most anticipated reads!!!"

The Young Will Remember by Eve J. Chung

“We cannot put the present on hold because of fears of what might lie ahead.”
Eve J. Chung, Daughters of Shandong

“I finally understood the gendered aspect of free will and fate. Father believed in making his own fortune because he was a man with choices laid out before him. Nai Nai and Mom believed in fate because they generally had to rely on the decisions of others. From my own experiences, I learned that our lives are a mixture of both.”
Eve J. Chung, Daughters of Shandong

“The gift of a stranger can make the difference of a lifetime.”
Eve J. Chung, Daughters of Shandong
