TOP STORY by Kelly Yang

TOP STORY is the fifth book in Mia Tang’s series that began with FRONT DESK. This book finds Mia in Chinatown where she’s won a scholarship for journalism camp at the Tribune. Her scholarship brings clarity to the ugliness of privilege and prejudice that surrounds her. The unfairness that has been a theme in all books seems extraordinarily painful in this story until Mia creatively, powerfully, actively finds her advantage. I love how every single character grows and changes in ways that feel authentic and believable. Fellow addicts can get a copy at this Indy purchase link below.
