If I had your face

If I had your face / Frances Cha, 274 pgs.

Set in Korea, the four main characters each have very different lives and interests but all live in the same apartment building.  This "slice of life" novel gives a little back story on each character but is mostly a contemporary setting where they interact with each other and beyond.  They are trying to figure things out, live their lives, make progress.  I feel like there were interesting cultural differences but also reinforced how much people deal with the same issues.  There were great lines and situations. Cha has a gift to make the ordinary seem extraordinary.
