Paper Wife - Laila Ibrahim - A Short Summary & Review

Posted by a.d. elliott

 


A short summary of Paper Wife:

The marriages, loves, and lives of Chinese immigrants.

My favorite Laila Ibrahim quote from the book:

"Work hard, be kind, be humble, and you will live a harmonious life."


Questions to ponder while reading Paper Wife:

What would you do to ensure your child's future?

What makes a family?

My review of the book:

An American immigrant tale from the Chinese perspective.

Engrossing read.

Great for a weekend in front of the fire.
