About this listen
A 2019 choice for In the Margins National Book Award Recommended Fiction list.
Some students will do anything to win, but others may pay the price.
For Mary Sofia, the Penultimate writing competition is more than a chance at a free college education; she wants to show her younger siblings that they can all rise above their violent family history. For Raiden, the pressure to succeed comes from within, although he knows that family traditions play a part in his determination. For Camara, writing fiction is almost compulsive, but her own dark secret may be the best story she can ever tell. For Michael, swimming and writing fit his introverted personality perfectly, but meeting a smart and beautiful girl at the Penultimate makes stepping outside of his comfort zone easy. All four will compete against each other along with 96 other high school juniors for the chance of a lifetime: a full scholarship to a prestigious private college. Some students will do anything to win, but others may pay the price.

If Bao Nguyen had to describe himself, he’d say he was a rock. Steady and strong, but not particularly interesting. His grades are average, his social status unremarkable. He works at his parents’ pho restaurant, and even there, he is his parents’ fifth favorite employee. Not ideal. If Linh Mai had to describe herself, she’d say she was a firecracker. The only problem? Her parents rely on her in ways they’re not willing to admit, including working practically full-time at her family’s pho restaurant.

Raj Bhatt is often unsure of where he belongs. Having moved to America from Bombay as a child, he knew few Indian kids. Now middle-aged, he lives mostly happily in California with a job at a university. Still, his white wife seems to fit in better than he does at times, especially at their tennis club, a place he's cautiously come to love. But it's there that, in one week, his life unravels. It begins at a meeting for potential new members: Raj thrills to find an African American couple on the list; he dreams of a more diverse club. But in an effort to connect, he makes a racist joke.

The Competition
Wow. This book really captures all the feels and emotions of this group of young adults at a writing competition. This book just like all of Cecily Wolfe's books are so relatable. I love that this book takes me back to an experience that could have been from my own life. It doesn't end in a normal HEA, but the ending was so satisfying. The narrator did a great job bringing me into the story as well.

Worth a listen
The summary of the book mentions 4 characters however the book contains considerable information about several other characters. At first, I was having a hard time keeping each person straight. It was a slow start for me. After I was into it, I really liked the story. The idea of the writing competition and diversity of the participants really drawn me in. I liked how she explained the writing prompt and what most characters wrote about the prompt for each part of the competition. The characters each had very different backgrounds and stories to tell. The reason they each wanted to win was compelling and it was hard to decide who to root for. I was not expecting the end. I was hoping for a little more of an epilogue.
Alexandra Johnston did a great job narrating the story. The words were crisp and easy to understand.
I received this audio book for free for an honest review.

Great story
This is a cute story full of excitement, a competitive spirit, betrayal, and triumph. It was a bit hard to keep up with the changes between the characters, but over all, I really enjoyed it.
