The Bride Test

by Helen Hoang and Emily Woo Zeller (narrator)

Recommendations from our site

“I really loved this. It’s so good. It’s a story about two people falling in love, of course, because that’s the heart of every romance, but it’s also a story of coming to America. It’s about a woman from Vietnam, Esme, who’s convinced to come and try to woo a young man by his mother. She’s doing it partly because she wants to have a better life for her family and for her daughter. So, it’s both a story of her meeting him in these funny circumstances, but also it’s a story of her figuring out her way in America, figuring out English and making her own path. I love that it’s both of those things.” Read more...
