Imposter Syndrome and Other Confessions of Alejandra Kim
Patricia Park
After her Papi dies, high school senior Alejandra Kim feels she belongs neither at her Manhattan prep school nor in her immigrant Queens neighborhood. At school, her Spanish name and Korean appearance set her apart from mostly white classmates and teachers. Alejandra hopes to leave for her dream college, but first must reckon with the disconnection she feels across the places that should be familiar. Her story brings grief, school life, identity, and the search for belonging together.
