Biggest Disappointment of 2020

Filled with surprising twists and offering sharp insights into the immigrant experience, White Ivy is both a love triangle and a coming-of-age story, as well as a glimpse into the dark side of a woman who yearns for success at any cost. There are very few thriller contemporary books out there with an Asian main character and discussions about the immigrant experience, and so I thought this book was going to be everything I ever dreamed of. Obviously, we know from the synopsis that she becomes obsessed with her privileged classmate (yes, it is a white male named Gideon), and I thought this was going to be an interesting dynamic. In my opinion, these conversations never shone through and what I thought was going to be an immigrant story, quickly took a backseat.

You know that feeling when you leave high school and the days of obligatory classic reading, and for the next few years shut out classic books from your TBR? I never imagined myself going back to classic books until I read Anna K by Jenny Lee, which is a modern reimagining of the classic Anna Karenina.
