Book 40: Free Food for Millionaires by Min Jin Lee

 I just finished Free Food for Millionaires and I give it 🪭🪭🪭🪭.

This is kind of a long book with a lot going on. It focuses on Casey Han and how she is navigating her post-Princeton years after she gets thrown out of her family's home for being sassy to her very traditional father. Casey's discovery of who she is and who she wants takes up much of the book. There's a rich cast of characters who are also learning about themselves: Casey's very traditional mother Leah, who sings in the church choir; her cousin Ella, who marries what looks to be the perfect man and finds out that he really isn't, and her sister Tina, who is the 'good daughter' compared to Casey. The characters are written so well. The problems with this book is that it can be repetitive in places, some of the storylines kind of fizzled (all the stuff with Sabine) and most of the men were horrible. But all in all, a good (if long) read.
