For fans of Grey’s Anatomy and Seven Days in June, this dazzling debut novel by Shirlene Obuobi explores a pivotal moment in life where one must determine their desires, navigate love and friendship, and confront the challenges ahead. Ghanaian-American Angela Appiah appears to embody the “Perfect Immigrant Daughter,” having enrolled in an elite medical school, secured a suitable boyfriend, and surrounded herself with a circle of successful friends. However, her carefully constructed life unravels: her boyfriend breaks up with her, she fails a crucial exam, and her best friend distances herself. With her parents’ approval tied to her adherence to their expectations, Angie faces a quarter-life crisis. Used to working “twice as hard to get half as far,” she begins to question her career, friendships, and attraction to men who don’t reciprocate her feelings. Just when her situation seems dire, she meets Ricky Gutierrez—a brilliant and thoughtful man who sees her true self. Yet, he comes with his own baggage, and Angie, weary of chasing unworthy partners, struggles with her feelings. Ultimately, she learns that despite her desire for control, matters of the heart are unpredictable and cannot be planned.
