I'm looking for amazing books that are set in Vietnam and written by Vietnamese authors. Preference is for literary fiction, memoirs, or historical fiction, but I'm open to anything that is an excellent read. Bonus points if the book is set in Hanoi.I'm looking for amazing books that are set in Vietnam and written by Vietnamese authors.

How mI utilize all 5 of the possible star ratings on GR. My most common rating is 3 stars, which means I enjoyed the book and am glad that I read it. How my ratings translate:
5 stars = Utterly incredible. One of the best books I've read this year.
4 stars = Fantastic and easy to recommend.
3 stars = Good and worthwhile.
2 stars = Meh. Just ok.
1 star = Not for me. ------ If you find my reviews helpful, feel free to follow and comment! I love chatting about books with anyone, but I do keep my own follow and friend's list curated to help steer me towards (or away from) what to read next. I accept requests from and follow people with similar reading taste, that write a review for most books they read, and have more books than friends on their GR. Star ratings are not nearly as helpful to other readers as telling what you did or did not like about a book, even if it is just a sentence or two.
