Here’s my request for a recommendation! Thanks!
Have you read Last Night at the Telegraph Club by Malinda Lo ? This is not a perfect fit for your request, but the main character, Lily Hu is a 17 year old in San Francisco whose family is forcing her to date and fit into the mold of what her traditional family thinks is a proper Chinese daughter.
Dread Nation by Justina Ireland. It’s a YA zombie apocalypse story set in an alternate version of the U.S. in the 1860’s, so it may not be your thing, but it’s the first book I thought of!
