02 Mar / Bone by Fae Myenne Ng [in What Do I Read Next? Multicultural Literature]
Middle daughter Ona unexpectedly commits suicide, leaving the other Leong family members to try and figure out why. The suicide acts as a pivotal point from which two very different Chinese American generations of parents and children, and husbands and wives must reexamine and redefine their relationships with one another. A painful yet hauntingly resonating debut novel.
