The Perfect Escape by Suzanne Park
Are you looking for a funny read this week? Me too! Check out this week’s title, The Perfect Escape by Suzanne Park. It’s a new release, too!
Download the book as an ebook from Hoopla: https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/12772646
Nate Jae-Woo Kim wants to be rich. When one of his classmates offers Nate a ridiculous amount of money to commit grade fraud, he knows that taking the windfall would help support his prideful Korean family, but is compromising his integrity worth it?
Luck comes in the form of Kate Anderson, Nate’s colleague at the zombie-themed escape room where he works. She approaches Nate with a plan: a local tech company is hosting a weekend-long survivalist competition with a huge cash prize. It could solve all of Nate’s problems, and she needs the money too.
If the two of them team up, Nate has a real shot of winning the grand prize. But the real challenge? Making through the weekend with his heart intact…
Check the blog on Monday for the first question!
