Julia is a wonderful storyteller. This was a beautiful story of fammily relationships, sacrifices, friendship, love and loss.
She detailed the struggles of a young immigrant searching for the American dream, both successfully, and with failure, illustrating the effects on his family both in the US and abroad.
It kept my attention throughout the book, and had me shed a few tears. If you love a good romance with life's ups and downs, you will love Let Us Begin.
