520    "A tender, humorous, and page-turning debut about a 
       Vietnamese Canadian family in Toronto who will do whatever
       it takes to protect their no-frills nail salon after a new
       high end salon opens up--even if it tears the family 
       apart. Perfect for readers of Olga Dies Dreaming and The 
       Fortunes of Jaded Women. Vietnamese refugees Debbie and 
       Phil Tran have built a comfortable life for themselves in 
       Toronto with their family nail salon. But when an ultra-
       glam chain salon opens across the street, their world is 
       rocked. Complicating matters further, their landlord has 
       jacked up the rent and it seems only a matter of time 
       before they lose their business and everything they've 
       built. They enlist the help of their daughter, Jessica, 
       who has just returned home after a messy breakup and a 
       messier firing. Together with their son, Dustin, and niece,
       Thuy, they devise some good old-fashioned sabotage. 
       Relationships are put to the test as the line between 
       right and wrong gets blurred. Debbie and Phil must choose:
       do they keep their family intact or fight for their salon?
       Sunshine Nails is a light-hearted, urgent fable of 
       gentrification with a cast of memorable and complex 
       characters who showcase the diversity of immigrant 
       experiences and community resilience"--|cProvided by
