Thank you to Atom for sending me a copy of Permanent Record to review for my blog.
Content warnings: panic attacks, ableism, debt, depression, assault, abandonment in an unknown city
Cast your minds back a few months to when I reviewed Emergency Contact by Mary H. K. Choi. This was one of my favourite books of the year and a book I got a few or my friends to read. Now Permanent Record is out; a book I was super excited for and sent a begging email to the publisher so I could get an early copy of to review.
Permanent Record follows Pablo Neruda Rind (named after the poet), who is a Pakistani-Korean American, as he is struggling through his late teens. He dropped out of University which caused a rift in his family and he felt it was best to move out. He’s struggling with money and doesn’t know what he wants to do with himself when he meets Leanna Smart, world superstar, who gets him swept up in her wild lifestyle.
So, I didn’t like this as much as I liked Emergency Contact. I was a little disappointed in it to be honest. But I still plan on reading whatever Choi writes because I love her writing style.
