Their accents are fluid. Their homes are ridiculously posh. Their sports games often involve a (private) plane trip to another country. They miss school because of jet lag and visa issues. When they get in trouble, they seek diplomatic immunity. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Enter foster-kid-out-of-water Elle Zoellner, who, on her sixteenth birthday, discovers that her long-lost father, Kenji Takahara, is actually a Japanese hotel mogul and wants her to come live with him. Um, yes, please! Elle jets off first class from Washington, DC, to Tokyo, which seems like a dream come true. Until she meets her enigmatic father, her way-too-fab aunt, and her hyper-critical grandmother, who seems to wish Elle didn't exist. In an effort to please her new family, Elle falls in with the Ex-Brats, a troop of uber-cool international kids who spend money like it's air. But when she starts to crush on a boy named Ryuu, who's frozen out by the Brats and despised by her new family, her already tenuous living situation just might implode. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eMy Almost Flawless Tokyo Dream Life\u003c\/i\u003e is about learning what it is to be a family, and finding the inner strength to be yourself, even in the most extreme circumstances.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRachel Cohn\u003c\/b\u003e is the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author of several young adult novels, including \u003ci\u003eKill All Happies, Gingerbread, Shrimp, Cupcake\u003c\/i\u003e, and, with David Levithan, \u003ci\u003eNick \u0026amp; Norah's Infinite Playlist, Dash \u0026amp; Lily's Book of Dares\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eSam \u0026amp; Ilsa's Last Hurrah\u003c\/i\u003e.
