Rachel Khong on what it means to be a real American.

The best way to listen to Virtual Book Tour is in the Book of the Month app!  On this week's episode, we sit down with Rachel Khong to discuss her new novel, Real Americans. We had so much fun asking the big questions like, "what do we inherit from our families and their histories," and what it means to be a "real American." Real Americans begins on the precipice of Y2K in New York City when Lily Chen meets Matthew. Matthew is everything Lily is not, but despite the differences, they fall in love. In 2021, fifteen-year-old Nick Chen has never felt like he belonged on the isolated island where he lives with his single mother, Lily. Real Americans is a story of trust, forgiveness, and finally coming home. Get Real Americans at bookofthemonth.com.
