Hii, long time no see.
At this point, I feel like either the universe doesn’t want me to post more or I’m unable to organize my time well enough to be able to read something.
I have not touched a single book since I’ve moved here and it’s been two months. Living abroad turns out is a lot more stressful than I anticipated it to be. I’ve also lost my dog 2 weeks ago and, well, him dying while I’m not there still hurts. Not sure I’ll ever get over it since he’s been my friend since I was 13.
Istanbul is just insanely huge, so it took me a while to be able to grasp the fact that it will take me at ..read more

*A high school senior navigates messy boys and messier relationships in this bitingly funny and much-needed look into the overlap of Asian American identity and teen sexuality.*
June Chu is the “just good enough” girl. Good enough to line the shelves with a slew of third-place trophies and steal secret kisses from her AP Bio partner, Rhys. But not good enough to meet literally any of her Taiwanese mother’s unrelenting expectations or to get Rhys to commit to anything beyond a well-timed joke.
While June’s mother insists she follow in her (perfect) sister’s footsteps and g ..read more
