Review of Everything I Never Told You by Celeste Ng

This book kept me reading to find out what would be revealed with each chapter. It explores the hopes and fears of the parents whose daughter was found drowned at the bottom of a lake. The parents ultimately put all their unfulfilled dreams onto their older daughter and ignored their son and younger daughter. The older daughter tried to do and be whatever her parents wanted - in the case of her mother, to eventually become a doctor and in the case of her father, to fit in and be accepted socially. The older daughter relied on her brother to shield her from her parents over involvement in her life. But when her brother is accepted into Harvard and about to move away from home, she can't take it any more. I won't spoil the ending by revealing how the book concludes.
