Ingrid Yung’s life is full of “firsts.” A first-generation Chinese-American, the first lawyer in her family, she’s about to collect the Holy Grail of “firsts” –she’s about to become the first minority woman to make partner at the venerable old law firm, Parsons Valentine & Hunt LLP.

"Wouldn't it be better to get one of the senior M&A paralegals for this? I usually work with either Evelyn Griffiths or Joseph Cruz, and they're both terrific. Really smart, and on top of everything."

Engaging and suspenseful...[Wan] dissects the tokens of status in this world in a manner that's reminiscent of Tom Wolfe.” — Wall Street Journal It’s a win-win situation and Perdie knows it… but struggles are struggles and the reader fights through all of them with her, hoping that one day she’ll realise …She basically sacrificed her life to fulfill this dream. Shes single, childless and a woman of color. That’s Ingrid. And then the guy is a TOTAL sweetheart. He is solely focused on her and there are no OW/OM in this (though she both contemplates other men and thinks he might be with other women... he's not). He is not perfect. When she freaks out (which she sadly does a lot), he often will say something like "I won't be waiting for you forever", which, while true, is a kinda shitty thing to say to a woman you love. But I forgive him because he really would have waited for her. He just can't help it cause he really thinks she's worth it.

They're about to acquire a clean energy upstart, Binney Enterprises, for nine hundred million and change," Adler went on. "They've been after them for a year and a half, and finally shook hands with the Binney people last week." This was a really satisfying book. Wan does a great job of taking us behind the scenes in the lawyer's world. I really loved how she wove in the experiences of being a minority and a female in that setting. Although some of the childhood experiences with racism and the beginning interactions with her goal-oriented parents were pretty generic (maybe because I've experienced them myself or heard about them plenty), the actual character of Ingrid seemed very multi-dimensional. I enjoyed how Wan set up Ingrid's desire to work in and be part of New York City.

He came around the side of his desk, gesturing with his bifocals toward his couch. He was not a tall man, but he had heft. "Please sit."

Where Was 'The Gilded Age' Filmed? All About the Newport Mansions and Upstate New York Towns Bringing the HBO Show to Life I don’t want to give much more of the story away, because I truly think more people should read this and go into it openly. Perdie Stone only requires three things in life: Lucille, her lifelong best friend. Bananas, their cute rescue pug. And she was offered a coveted partnership position at her Charleston law company. Murph glanced at me. "Hey, you don't mind, do you? You want us to sit with you til you're done?" Actually, I did mind. Eating alone in the Jury Box made me feel like my cover had been blown. But I couldn't tell them that. "Go, go, I don't mind," I said, shooing them away. "See you guys later." I had never wanted to belong to anything more than to that shimmering landscape of office towers lit up against the dark New York sky.

So at the last minute, I rushed from work to my apartment and threw on my high school prom dress—the one I'd worn the night I'd been crowned Potomac Valley High's first-ever Asian American prom queen. (Oh my! Mrs. Saltzstein, the guidance counselor, had gushed. She'd heard of Oriental valedictorians before, but never a Chinese prom queen!) The dress was a strapless pink taffeta number. The zipper took some coaxing, and I was mushrooming a little out the top, but damn if I didn't still look pretty good in that thing.
