Emergency Contact by Mary H.K. Choi
4.0
emotional funny medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Mary H.K. Choi captures late teen/early 20s angst so well. The dialogue is so spot on. There are some pacing and development issues with the side plots, but I love the characters and the main plot is well-paced. I like that there is no big drama blowout between Penny and Sam.
