Good Enough by Paula Yoo - Well told story about Korean-American first generation Patti Yoon, a high school senior. Patti is an exceptionally bright student. Patti strives to achieve her parents’ expectations to be accepted by YaleHarvardPrinceton. Patti also is an exceptional violinist who learns a lot from a new trumpet player in the orchestra. I liked the way the relationship was handled. There’s a warm humor to the book that I really appreciated. The story is about achievement, love, success, happiness. It includes recipes for life and Spam (the canned lunchmeat).
