X-WR-CALDESC:Guilty Pleasures Book Club\n\nGita Desai is Not Here to Shut U
 p by Sonia Patel (400 pages)\n\nIt’s eighteen-year-old Gita Desai’s first 
 year at Stanford\, and the fact that she’s here and not already married of
 f by her traditional Gujarati parents is a miracle. She’s determined to de
 ath-grip her good-girl\, model student rep all the way to med school\, whi
 ch means no social life or standing out in any way. Should be easy: If the
 re’s one thing she’s learned from her family\, it’s how to chup-re—to “shu
 t up\,” fade into the background. But when childhood memories of her aunt’
 s desertion and her then-uncle’s best friend resurface\, Gita ends up ditc
 hing the books night after night in favor of partying and hooking up with 
 strangers. Still\, nothing can stop the little voice growing louder and lo
 uder inside her that says something is wrong. . . . And the only way she c
 an burst forward is to stop shutting up about the past.\n\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
