been wanting to read this book for the longest time and finally had to read it for a book club this month. coming-of-age story set in taipei in the late 1980s as the narrator, closeted lesbian, navigates queerness, academia, relationships and more. started it late and had to read it in a rush but somehow that made it more enjoyable. i love the narration and the overall tone.

if thereβs a sad asian girl book ill read it and this one was stunning and crushed my heart with its relatability. short stories w protagonists managing their lack of self worth, feeling undesirable, being around white ppl, feeling weird as fuck in america, etc.

On a friend. On a coworker. On a stranger. Watch from afar and daydream or engage and find out and get your heart broken. People are beautiful... and no matter your feelings, it will pass!!!

stop going to Starbucks or McDonald's! delete X/Twitter and start posting on here or on Bluesky instead! stop legally streaming HYBE or SM Entertainment or any K-POP companies that refuse to see their artists as humans worthy of rights in the workplace! switch from Spotify to Apple Music or any other service that pay their artists more! we have so much power why do we forget
