Minor Feelings by Cathy Park Hong

I read this book last summer and am re-reading it now because it’s so good. One of those “tell everyone you know to read it” books. She’s a poet turned essayist and she’s just got such a gift for articulating pain and humor and trauma and things that should be boring but aren’t. This collection is funny, it’s heartbreaking, it’s honest, it’s vulnerable. She’s the kind of writer most people wish they were (myself included).

The sorrows of others - ada zhang

A friend gifted this to me — I loved it! Each short story is poignant and distinct.

severance by ling ma

same vein as cherimae (can’t tag for some reason lol), this book was really an experiment in empathy and forgiving for a first-gen immigrant. also talks a lot about contemporary workplace politics and just the monotony of modern life but I found it to be optimistic ultimately. Very well written and you can finish it in like 3 days.
