Good Enough

Good Enough by Paula Yoo [YA Fiction]

by Wendy, 12th grader

The author, Paula Yoo is an incredibly funny person (I had the pleasure of emailing her and she wrote back!). Her character Patti Yoon is a perfect Korean-American honor student slated for the big three: HARVARD/PRINCETON/YALE, but senior year changes everything. With sharp, intelligent and witty observations, Patti learns about what it’s like to be her own person. If readers are looking for trite, sappy teenage romance, then this is not the novel for you. Through recipes, jokes, and even SAT word spoofs, Paula Yoo delivers the truth about growing up, being happy, and moving on.
