Ah, I love this book. Has anyone else read it?
QUOTE Millicent Min is having a bad summer. Her fellow high school students hate her for setting the curve. Her fellow 11-year-olds hate her for going to high school. And her mother has arranged for her to tutor Stanford Wong, the poster boy for Chinese geekdom. But then Millie meets Emily. Emily doesn't know Millicent's IQ score. She actually thinks Millie is cool. And if Millie can hide her awards, ignore her grandmother's advice, swear her parents to silence, blackmail Stanford, and keep all her lies straight, she just might make her first friend. What's it going to take? Sheer genius. And...I misspelled her name in the topic title lol. Can someone fix that. >.< |

I liked the book, but Millicent's family was so...white. You wouldn't think they were Asian, AT ALL. Especially her grandmother. I liked the book, but I expected Millicent's parents to be all "GO STUDY YOUR CALCULUS!!" than "Hey, sign up for volleyball."
But Stanford's parents were pretty Asian. "Why can't you be more like Millicent!?!" |
