Emergency Contact (2018), written by Mary H. K. Choi, is a darling romcom about two loner types who spend all their time texting each other. He’s poor and lives above a coffee shop. She’s awkward because it’s a YA book. In young people fashion, the meat of the story is actually less of a will they, won’t they, and more about coping with tensioned relationships with mothers. This one is very cute and great if you’re looking to burn straight through a book in a weekend.
