Young Adult Book Group with Micah
Discussing Chloe and the Kaishao Boys by Mae Coyiuto.
Pizza Provided!
Hosted by Greenlight bookseller Micah, the Young Adult Book Group is a space for the curious young reader interested in a curated, intentionally diverse, and broad selection of books. While literature is of course at the core of this book group, cultivating our very own community and connections are also at the root of YABG, so if this sounds like a good time to you, come join the fun! Young Adult Book Group is geared toward readers ages 13+; parents are welcome (but not required) to attend.
For November, the group discusses Mae Coyiuto’s Chloe and the Kaishao Boys — a hilarious YA rom-com about a Chinese Filipina girl in Manila who must decide if following her dreams is worth everything — and everyone — she’ll be leaving behind. When Chloe — who knows what it takes to be the perfect Liang daughter — unexpectedly gets off the wait list for USC, her dream of becoming an animator in the U.S. is suddenly within reach; but a career in animation is far from guaranteed. At home in the Philippines, Chloe’s future is all planned out for her. In America, nothing is certain.
