The story follows along on their romantic journey from children of rival families and sworn enemies, to partners on a school journalism project, and finally to boyfriend/girlfriend…but will lying to their families and sneaking around really work out in the long run? Both are high school seniors in California, both have parents who run pho restaurants, both are children of immigrants, and eventually we find out that they may be more connected than they ever thought possible. This was a heartfelt romantic comedy that had me laughing, crying, and nodding in agreement all the way through! What is A Pho Love Story about?Ī Pho Love Story is told from alternating points of view, we have two narrators in Bao and Linh. She adds in the cultural and societal pressures of being children of immigrant parents and learning about not just Vietnamese culture and history is an added bonus to the story…thanks for never teaching me anything useful in “history” PA board of education. In her debut novel Loan Le crafts a gorgeous story that encompasses so many of the feelings I remember fondly (or not so fondly) of that crazy time between high school and college.
