__Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet__ by Jamie Ford

In my book, I really like how the author takes a very serious subject, Japanese families being sent to internment camps during World War ll, and makes it accessible to readers. He does a great job showing various perspectives on the matter and then he lets the reader experience their own reaction. While reading this book, I have learned about a time in American history that I didn't know much about. I have also gained some insight into the life of Chinese Americans and Japanese Americans during World War II.
