Born Confused Audiobook

" This book is a great book that expresses the daily life of being a teenager and struggling with how you look, religion and of course boys. I did feel that the book was slow reading and there were many Indian words that aren't easily understood. Overall a really enjoyable book "

" I really liked this book. It mirrored many American born Asians struggles for their identity. I really connected with the main character. The book also explored "sacred Cow" issues, like gays.
