Your House Will Pay

The writing was good and the plot was executed well. Sean and Grace read as real people, but I feel awkward commenting on it because the families that this story was based on are still alive. If you want to have a better understanding of the racial tensions between Korean liquor store owners and black youth during the 90's, this is a thorough insight.

What I will comment on, though the actual plot had nothing to do with my personal history, it was eerie how much of this book mirrored random specific aspects of my life. I grew up in Palmdale and moved to LA when I was 21. To Koreatown specifically. I also married someone who's last name is Cha. It's weird to hear about my high school and have my favorite K-pop band mentioned. Definitely creepy.
