Zuri Benitez has satisfaction. Brooklyn pride, family members pride, and pride in her Afro-Latino roots. But pride might not be enough to save her quickly about Satisfaction gentrifying community from becoming unrecognizable.

When the wealthy Darcy family moves in across the street, Zuri wants nothing in connection with their two teenage sons, even as her older sister, Janae, begins to fall for the charming Ainsley. She especially can’t stand the judgmental and arrogant Darius. Yet simply because Zuri and Darius are forced to discover common ground, their preliminary dislike shifts into an urgent understanding.

But with four wild sisters pulling her in different directions, cute boy Warren vying for her attention, and university applications hovering coming, Zuri fights to come across her place in Bushwick’s changing scenery, or lose it all.

In a timely update of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, critically acclaimed author Ibi Zoboi skillfully balances cultural identity, class, and gentrification against the heady magic of first love in her vibrant reimagining of this beloved classic.
