### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Whose Heart is missing?  Great title significance.
  

*by L***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 24, 2023*

This book's "heart," which is missing, is a futuristic American law called PACT, Preserving American Culture and Traditions. It is dubbed a solemn promise to root out any anti-American elements undermining the nation. Some see the law as anti-Asian, but many consider it essential to preserve the country. PACT mandates that schools must ensure that children do not learn bad ideas. Libraries are strictly controlled and must destroy books that proliferate undesirable concepts. Part of the title's significance derives from a poem titled "All Our Missing Hearts," written by Margaret Mu, a Chinese-American woman. Although Margaret did not have subversive intent when publishing the poem, she is forced into hiding since too many people are suspicious of her motives and view her as dangerous.Noah Gardner, a twelve-year-old Chinese-American son of Margaret, is on a quest to find his mother. He conducts some research and realizes there is a network of librarians who preserve some of the banned  books and act as liaisons between children and parents who are "in hiding." The novel's plot follows his adventures as he journeys to find his mother. His world and his encounters are scary and dystopian. So much of the world Celeste Ng created in this story relates scarily to recent and current events in the USA. It was disconcerting to read about her plausible extrapolations.

    read this for book club
  

*by C***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 9, 2023*

I had trouble getting started. I think it reminded me about the current state of affairs, which is so sad, us against them. I loved the librarians role in this world, an underground network to reunite families. Noble work and one Bird will use as his example in his future to restore his mothers poetry.

    Right Before Our Eyes
  

*by S***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 7, 2023*

Scary in many ways with what the far right wants to take away in our own country.  Banning books, going after different cultures, changing history etc.Hopefully we are not headed for an authoritarian government, as shown in this story.  Could this happen?  Yes!  Right before our eyes!you can
