For their April meeting, All Booked Up readsHotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet by Jamie Ford. In this "tender and satisfying novel" (Garth Stein, author of The Art of Racing in the Rain) Henry, a Chinese-American, recalls his childhood in the 1940s, and the Japanese-American girl who was his best friend and first love, until World War 2 and Japanese-American Internment tore them apart.
