我最常聽的podcast之一是Charis Poon和Eugene Kan的「Making It Up」，而剛好看到Charis在instagram上推薦這本書，依稀記得好像說一讀到開首便已經忍不住哭了，因為書中正是她心目中的香港。我當時沒有想太多，只是好奇：因為我沒有遇過標榜寫真實香港、由香港作者寫、而又不是以政治為題材的英文書。OK，let’s give it a go！我也想看看用英文寫可以寫出怎麼樣的香港。我在網上試讀過短短幾頁，我便對這書心生好感，因為她提到一句：「My favorite sign in the city is located at the airport, next to the platform for inter-terminal trains: “Relax, train comes every two minutes.”」係呀，每次我帶着行李巡扶手電梯往下到連接客運大樓機場列車的平台時，看到這個超大海報，心中不禁在笑：「唔知外國人睇到會覺得我哋香港人係咪痴線嘅」好！I like Karen already，等我買咗本書先！
