Jakob Markus Hi Michelle, perhaps I have an idea. In "Reading with Patrick" you sometimes go over your experiences as someone of Asian heritage in the USA. My girlfriend is similarly of Asian (Thai) heritage, and when sent her those passages, she thought they were very well written and expressed what she felt too. Especially the passage on you describing how Asian parents would sacrifice everything for their children's success really hit close to home for her.

Now, I must admit that I have no idea on how many books have been written so far on the experience of people of Asian heritage in the West, but this might be a good idea perhaps to look into?

I really liked your book!

Thanks
JM
