A proposito di questo titolo
Izzy Chen is dreading her family’s annual Chinese New Year celebration, where they all come together at a Michelin-starred restaurant to flaunt their status and successes in hopes to one up each other. So when her seventy-three-year-old glamorous and formidable grandmother walks in with a stunning woman on her arm and kisses her in front of everyone, it shakes Izzy to her core. She’d always considered herself the black sheep of the family for harboring similar feelings to the ones her Nainai just displayed.
Seeing herself in her teenage granddaughter's struggles with identity and acceptance, Magnolia Chen tells Izzy her own story, of how as a teen she was sent by her Indo-Chinese parents from Jakarta to Los Angeles for her education and fell in love with someone completely forbidden to her by both culture and gender norms—Ellery, an American college student who became Magnolia's best friend and the love of her life. Stretching across decades and continents, Magnolia's star-crossed love story reveals how life can take unexpected turns but ultimately lead you to exactly who you're meant to be.

"Next Time Will Be Our Turn is a masterwork of intergenerational love, identity, and rebellion told through voices so alive they feel like family. Jesse Q. Sutanto's writing is deeply heartfelt and achingly authentic. The ending left me breathless, eyes wet, and somehow more whole. This is a beautiful, defiant, unforgettable triumph."—Taleen Voskuni, award-winning author of Lavash at First Sight
"A moving and strikingly original love letter to love in its varied forms. Yes, swooning, heady romantic love. But also the trying, stormswept love shared between family. Even the primal love for a bite of perfect food gets many a moment. This book will remind you why love stories matter."—Jeff Zentner, award-winning author of Colton Gentry's Third Act

"Prolific Sutanto presents more page-turning fiction with empathy, humor, and just enough bite."—Booklist
"Sutanto demonstrates her range in this new bittersweet love story that feels very different in tone and structure from her previous works—more wistful, vastly less zany, and unfolding as a long conversation between a grandmother and her teenage granddaughter. ... I was hanging on every word of the narrative—and was also struck by the tender and real intergenerational dynamics."—Modern Mrs. Darcy blog
