The first page is all you need to need. Skye Shin is a protagonist that only comes by once (maybe twice) in a lifetime. In the world of kpop, where size 0 and heterosexual relationships are the standard, Skye disrupts the industry with her talent, making it impossible to ignore her and all that she stands for. And reader, she is a powerhouse.

Bellatin has a way of saying the loud part quietly so his stories light a long fuse in your brain that can crackle and spark for months before exploding. One never knows quite where to look or what to pay attention to as this slow story of art, identity, patriarchy, and cultural mores winds through the fall out of a critical essay a young woman writes about an art collector. Baffling, beautiful, & unique.

My eyes also kiss in the corners and I wish there had been a book for my eyes when I was growing up. I love that the book exists today, thanks to Joanna Ho, and I hope that children (and adults) from all corners of the world get to read this now. Note: this makes a great gift, in time for Lunar New Year!

Lush and weird, one bite of this book isn't enough- I had to binge it, and it was hard to find another book after that would feed my hunger for more. From the complexities of food and mother-daughter relationship, to questions of career, sex, and desire, Broder has created a deliciously weird, multiple-course masterpiece.

This book is almost too good for words. Taking place in a sci-fi setting reminiscent of the wild west, this book is everything I could have asked for and more. It tracks five girls as they escape a Welcome House (their form of brothel) and become outlaws in order to gain their freedom. Davis' worldbuilding  is some of the best I've ever seen, neither over explaining, or leaving me wishing that I knew more, and the character dynamics were to die for. An absolute must read!

Reconstruction: Stories (Paperback)

This book is incredible. After each story, I had to stop and stare at a wall for at least 24 hours just processing until I could move on and read the next one. Several times I found myself forgetting that this was, in fact, a book of short stories and not a full length novel where I could spend all 256 pages in any one of Alaya Dawn Johnson's unique and engrossing worlds, and the first story, A Guide to Fruits of Hawai'i immediately captured my vampire loving heart.

Lily Hu wants a lot of things that are out of reach in San Francisco's Chinatown in 1954: She wants to build rockets. She wants to avoid the communist witch hunts. And -- much to her surprise -- she wants Kathleen Miller, who is definitely not the nice Chinese boy everyone expects for her.
