This novel reached into the marrow of what it means to inherit dreams, silence, and survival. Real Americans isn’t just a story—it’s a meditation on identity, ancestry, and the quiet ways our lineage shapes us.
Rachel Khong writes with grace and depth, inviting us to question: Who am I beyond the stories I was given?
It left me reflecting on my own roots, the invisible threads that tie us to the past, and how we choose to rewrite—or honor—what we carry forward. A powerful, layered journey across generations.
I feel like it could have been a really good book. I think they should have started on the past and move forward in time instead of going back in time. It left me wanting to know more. But not in a good way of that makes sense. Over all it is a pretty good book.
