#46 - The Leavers by Lisa Ko
On this episode, we discuss the Books & Boba Book Club pick for May 2018, [*The Leavers*][1] by Lisa Ko, a story of a Chinese-American boy dealing with his adoption by well-meaning white parents after his mother's deportation. We discuss the parallels between the dual narratives as well as what the title "The Leavers" really means. To help us with the adoptee perspective, we invite book club member and contributor Lily Rugo, who herself is a Chinese adoptee.
