Raves and Reviews
“A master of figurative language, Lam deftly describes her life in a multicultural family and the pressures they face from both their Chinese and American societies. Readers will enjoy the transformation of each dynamic member of the family and find themselves rooting for the protagonist again and again. This book celebrates the power of resilience and a young girl’s determination to chase her dreams. Lam left me wanting more.”
—Amanda Zieba, author of Breaking the Surface and the Orphan Train Rider Series
“In opening up Angela Lam's story one soon feels a settling down, a savoring of scenes similar to the placid detail of Van Gogh's 'Fishing Boats on the Beach at Saintes-Maries.' Hasty though I am by nature, I'm almost tempted to just settle into that prose-verging-upon poetic passage of time, of images.”
—Geoff Wood, author of Living the Lectionary
“Red Eggs and Good Luck is the kind of honest, beautifully written memoir that will have you staying up way too late turning pages.”
—Jennifer Fulwiller, bestselling author of Something Other Than God
“Do yourself a favor. Read [Red Eggs and Good Luck]. Get it for your book club (are you paying attention, mom?). Give it away as Christmas presents. If nothing else, get it from the library... If your experience is anything like mine, the only thing you won’t like about this moving, little gem, the only thing about it that will make you really angry is that it ends.”
—Brian O'Neel, Editor-in-Chief, The North Coast Catholic
