And so Top Ten Tuesday rolls around once again! The theme is:
April 28: Top Ten Books Which Feature Characters Who _____ (are musically inclined, have lost someone, have depression, who grow up poor, etc.)
This week, I decided to highlight books that feature immigrant stories. I've intentionally been trying to get more of this into my TBR because one, I can relate on some level because I myself am an immigrant, and two, I think it's a fascinating process to uproot then acculturate. It's not without its struggles and challenges and it is always inspiring to hear how people eventually . These stories are a peek into some historic immigrant movements, from past to present.
I've linked up to my reviews, so I hope you click if a title catches your eye. In no particular order:
Eat Now, Talk Later by James Vescovi (non-fiction)
Home is a Roof Over A Pig by Aminta Arrington
(non-fiction)
(non-fiction)
Tiger Babies Strike Back by Kim Wong Keltner (non- fiction - bonus, because I wanted to get another non-fiction title in here)
Buddha in the Attic by Julie Otsuka (a bonus, because it's unreviewed!)
Have you read any of these? Which one/s catch your eye?
If you have any recommendations for books featuring immigrant stories, I'd love to hear about it!
