I like that Behold the Dreamers feels so recent and urgent. It's about a young couple, Jende and Neni, from Cameroon who move the the U.S. to find opportunity just for the Great Recession. Their lives are intertwined with those of a Wall Street family that Jende works for as a chauffeur. You can probably figure out that setup doesn't bode well for their financial prospects. I did feel that some of the dialogue was a little stilted, but the story still kept me engaged to the end.
