"All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy 

Tash loves all things Tolstoy, especially, Anna Karenina, but today's world doesn't embrace the sweeping masterpiece as much as Tash would like so she puts her own spin on the classic by retelling it through a web series called Unhappy Families. When a well-known vlogger gives a shout-out for the series, the unimaginable happens and Tash is shot into stardom. But can she handle the newfound fame, a potential love interest, and keep her friends without losing her own identity?

Dr. Pepper - This is a literal representation from the book as a favorite drink for Paul. 

Soup - This is a traditional Russian soup called Shchi. It's a common dish. The mixing of the ingredients symbolizes the mixing of friends. Some of the items go together while others don't typically mix like cabbage and tomatoes in the dish and yet compliment one another. 

Bread and caviar - The breaking of bread around a dinner table is something families do together as well as with other families. It is served with caviar to represent Tash's taste of the finer things in life. To find out what, you'll have to read the book.
