Fleeing the aftermath of the Tiananmen Square crackdown in 1989 and fueled by a burning desire for a better life, Apple embarks on a daring journey to pursue her doctoral education in America. With no backup plan, Apple has to make this journey work. But she has no idea that her starting place, Las Cruces, NM, is a quiet desert town—a far cry from the bustling metropolis she envisioned. Anxious, ignorant, broken, lost, and homesick, Apple is also excited, curious, and open-minded. Will she simply survive the fish-out-of-the-water situation many immigrants experience, or will she thrive?

This is a great book
Revisado: 05-03-23
This book tells the story of Apple, a first-generation immigrant who had just left China and lived in a completely new society. Despite the enormous cultural difference between China and US in the last century, Apple's curiosity and never-give-up attitude made her journey in the US go far and far, she became strong and independent. As an immigrant reader, her story will always encourage and inspire my study life in the US.
