Group will discuss "Pride and Protest" by Nikki Payne. Please check with the desk for copy availability and other details.
"Pride and Prejudice meets Black-ish in this exciting new rom-com by debut author Nikki Payne. Liza B-The Only DJ That Gives a Jam-wants to take her neighborhood back from the soulless property developer dropping unaffordable condos on every street corner in DC. But her planned protest at their corporate event takes a turn after she mistakes the smoldering hot CEO for the waitstaff. When they go toe-to-toe, the sparks fly-but her impossible-to-ignore family thwarts her every move. Liza wants Dorsey Fitzgerald out of her hood, but she'll settle for getting him out of her head. At first, Dorsey writes Liza Bennett off as an over-caffeinated woke weekend warrior. As the adopted Filipino son of a wealthy white family he's always felt a bit out of place, and knows a fraud when he sees one. But when Liza's protest results in a viral meme, their lives are turned upside down and Dorsey comes to realize this irresistible revolutionary is the most real woman he's ever met."
