Great stuff Tapan. Added these books to my list. Congrats on a successful 2024 and congrats to you and your spouse!
My favorite read of the year was The Snakehead by Patrick Radden Keefe. It's a true story about a grandmother who runs a people smuggling operation from NYC's Chinatown. It covers the running aground of the Golden Venture ship off of Queens in 1993. The ship was carrying 286 undocumented immigrants from China. It's a fascinating read, especially since it covers a piece of NYC history that isn't often discussed. Highly recommend!
