COUNTERFEIT
COUNTERFEIT by Kirstin Chen was such a great read that I was truly bummed when I finished it! The novel follows two former Stanford roommates who run into each other later in life and run an elaborate international counterfeit high-end handbag empire. Yes, really. It’s absurd but it hits all the right notes on some truly addicting elements: a mystery, a marriage on the rocks, elite Bay Area preschools, fractured family relationships, and even a college admissions scandal! I was cheering and cringing (in the best way) throughout—and have not stopped thinking about it since I turned the last page.
