Book of the Month Must Read: The Wangs vs the World

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Northeastern chapter.

So here’s the deal: there’s an amazing subscription box service that sends you a hand-picked book straight to your doorstep every month. If you love reading, this is heaven on Earth. We know, we love the idea of it too! It’s called Book of the Month, and for as little as $15 per month, you can join too!  

Now, you might be thinking: what if I don’t like the books they offer? Well, luckily for you we got to try it out this month, and we have to say the book was amazing!

Book Title: The Wangs vs the World

Author: Jade Chang

Synopsis:

This is Jade Chang’s first novel and it truly is hilarious. It tells the story of a wealthy but fractured Chinese immigrant family that had it all, only to lose every last cent, and the subsequent road trip they take across America that ends up bringing them all back together. Critics have called it outrageously funny, charming, and a true testament to what it means to belong in America.

Verdict: We won’t spoil it for you, but we definitely recommend it! It’s the perfect light read for the holiday break and you’ll enjoy the breath of fresh air before the spring semester begins!

Enjoy your reading, collegiettes!
