A review by vinterthunder
Permanent Record by Mary H.K. Choi
5.0
This book is: Empowering, current, and heart-warming
Genre: YA contemporary
I went into this book thinking it would a cute romantic story. Wrong! It still has that romantic component but it deals with a much bigger and universal issue permeating young adults today.
“What’re you going to do with your life?”
Yeah, it’s about trying to figure out how to be an adult in this confusing world.
The book starts a little bit too slow for me. If I hadn’t read Choi’s first book, I might have DNFed this one. I’m glad I kept reading!
Choi’s writing really touches on so many important contemporary issues most young adults and adults have to navigate through, like student loan, credit card, moving out, parental expectation and so on. It was done so tactful (and entertaining) that it didn’t feel preachy like some other book on similar topics.
If you feel like you don’t know what to do with your life, what career to choose, or just hate ‘adulting’, read this book.
