Description
Eighteen-year-old Ever Wong embarks on an unexpected journey when her parents, hoping to immerse her in a cultural experience, send her from Ohio to Taipei for a summer Mandarin program. This seemingly academic adventure quickly becomes a transformative summer as she navigates the complexities of her Chinese heritage while grappling with her identity in a foreign land. The vibrant backdrop of Taipei serves as both a stunning visual experience and a catalyst for Ever's self-discovery.
As Ever finds herself surrounded by fellow students who are just as eager to explore their roots, she discovers the thrill of newfound friendships and the intoxicating allure of young love. The challenges of fitting in, the excitement of making personal connections, and the charm of Taiwan create an exhilarating whirlwind that pushes Ever to step out of her comfort zone.
A complex interplay of culture, love, and personal growth unfolds, revealing the depth of relationships and the nuances of familial expectations. Ever’s summer in Taipei becomes a tapestry of laughter, heartache, and triumph, leaving her forever changed as she learns to embrace who she truly is.
