Her sister, June, on the other hand, is super rich with a well paying finance job and a massive apartment, she's never struggled in her life. But she's in New York, she's no longer stuck in Texas, and the city that never sleeps feels right for her. On top of it all, she's battling an eating disorder that she's not ready to confront. She's just making it through fashion school, her "boyfriend" is a deadbeat, and her "friends" aren't on the best paths themselves. Trigger Warnings: eating disorder(s), body dysmorphia, cancer, miscarriage, mental illness And Jayne becomes the only one who can help her.įlung together by circumstance, housing woes, and family secrets, will the sisters learn more about each other than they’re willing to confront? And what if while helping June, Jayne has to confront the fact that maybe she’s sick, too? Read more Once thick as thieves, these sisters who moved from Seoul to San Antonio to New York together now don’t want anything to do with each other.
Jayne is an emotionally stunted, self-obsessed basket case who lives in squalor, has egregious taste in men, and needs to get to class and stop wasting Mom and Dad’s money (if you ask June). June’s three years older, a classic first-born, know-it-all narc with a problematic finance job and an equally soulless apartment (according to Jayne). Choi comes a funny and emotional story about two estranged sisters and how far they’ll go to save one of their lives-even if it means swapping identities. “Sneaks up on you with its insight and poignancy.” - Entertainment Weeklyįrom New York Times bestselling author Mary H.K.
