I'm excited to be partnering with Two Dollar Radio
to bring you next month's Author/Reader Discussion book!
We will be reading and discussing
In order to stimulate discussion
Two Dollar Radio has agreed to give away 10 copies
to US residents only
Here is the Goodreads description:
It was a strange choice to decide to pass as a Russian. But it was a question of proximity and level of allure. Russians were everywhere in Los Angeles, especially in my neighborhood, and held a certain sense of mystery. I had long attempted to inhabit my Polish skin and was happy to finally crawl out of it. I would never tell my mother. She only thought of them as crooks and beneath us. They felt the same about us, we were beneath them. It had always been a question of who was under whom.
Anya is a young woman living in a Russian neighborhood in Los Angeles, struggling between retaining her parents’ Polish culture and the American-ness she was submerged in growing up. She decides to blaze a new path, and attempt to assimilate within her adopted community, epitomized by the exclusive club the Twin Palms. It is Anya’s goal to gain entrance to this club.
How To Get Into the Twin Palms is hilarious and deeply moving, providing a humorous twist on the typical immigrant tale of belonging.
This giveaway will run through October 8th.
Winners will be notified here and via email on October 9th.
Here's how to enter:
