Raves and Reviews
Year of Fire Dragons is not only a riveting coming of age story, but also a testament to the distance people will travel for love. Shannon Young is the voice of the millennial generation and anyone who has ever built a new life abroad.
– Susan Blumberg-Kason, author of Good Chinese Wife
Life's twists and turns are like the tail of a dragon, but this intrepid American millennial holds on tight to her dreams to carve out her place (creatively, financially and romantically) in Hong Kong—a world far from home. Shannon Young's delightful memoir shows us that true discoveries are made when we let go of who we think we are and embrace who we might become.
– Leza Lowitz, author of Here Comes The Sun
Year of Fire Dragons evokes all of the wonder of being in love as a young expat while capturing the true romance of Hong Kong. As you delight in Young's deftly written coming-of-age story, you might just find yourself falling for this fiery city where East meets West.
– Jocelyn Eikenburg, Speaking of China
