I knew they would all intertwine, but it still got me choked up at the end with just how much. I was a little confused at the start when the time period shifts started because it felt like it was almost not enough time to connect to a character before it shifted, but after a few more shifts I was fully invested. This was a subject that I knew nothing about and I love how passionate the author is about helping the existing dust children in Vietnam that have struggled with their identity, economically, and emotionally to find their extended family.
