“While I grew up on the western edge of the Chicago suburbs, I still found much of my own story of growing up on the pages of Findling’s memoir. Her youth is perhaps the one I imagined myself having, in a land of ocean beaches and pine trees. There is more to it than the scenery, however. Young Kim seeks her true self through a series of experiences and adventures, exploring the many sides of Oregon in the process: from a childhood on the southern Oregon coast, to college in Eugene, young adulthood in Portland, and eventually settling into the eastern side of the state.”—Pamela, Grass Roots Books & Music, Corvallis, OR.
