The not-so-simple question / by Matula, Christina.;
Holly-Mei Jones has finally settled into her new friend group in Hong Kong-that is, until suddenly everyone starts talking about dating. Which Holly-Mei is not ready for. At least she has her school's Experience Week to look forward to. Holly-Mei can't wait to show off Taiwan, where her beloved Ah-Ma is from, to her friends. The trip is going to be perfect...right? Maybe not. On top of the pressure to date, Holly-Mei starts to wonder if maybe being half-Taiwanese isn't enough. In the face of these big questions, will Holly-Mei be able to finally feel like she belongs?
