David Tung Can't Have a Girlfriend Until He Gets Into an Ivy League College by Ed Lin

This book had me ROFLing & also rooting for the main character David, who is under a lot of pressure to succeed academically, but also just really wants to fit in & have a girlfriend. This book also explores the richness & diversity of Chinese American communities in the United States—the tensions & differences between recent immigrants vs. second-generation kids, Cantonese speakers vs. Mandarin speakers, rich vs. poor, biracial vs. not. I’ll definitely be ordering a copy for my classroom library.
