**A Read with Jenna Today Show Book Club Pick**

A young womans crush on a privileged former classmate becomes a story of love, lies, and dark obsession, offering stark insights into the immigrant experience, as it hurtles to its electrifying ending.

Ivy Lin is a thief and a liarbut youd never know it by looking at her.

Raised outside of Boston, Ivys immigrant grandmother relies on Ivys mild appearance for cover as she teaches her granddaughter how to pilfer items from yard sales and second-hand shops. Thieving allows Ivy to accumulate the trappings of a suburban teenand, most importantly, to attract the attention of Gideon Speyer, the golden boy of a wealthy political family. But when Ivys mother discovers her trespasses, punishment is swift and Ivy is sent to China, and her dream instantly evaporates.

Years later, Ivy has grown into a poised yet restless young woman, haunted by her conflicting feelings about her upbringing and her family. Back in Boston, when Ivy bumps into Sylvia Speyer, Gideons sister, a reconnection with Gideon seems not only inevitableit feels like fate.

Slowly, Ivy sinks her claws into Gideon and the entire Speyer clan by attending fancy dinners, and weekend getaways to the cape. But just as Ivy is about to have everything shes ever wanted, a ghost from her past resurfaces, threatening the nearly perfect life shes worked so hard to build.

Filled with surprising twists and a nuanced exploration of class and race, White Ivy is a glimpse into the dark side of a woman who yearns for success at any cost.
