I would also love to recommend, Fiona and Jane, a novel by, Jean Chen Ho. It's about an incredible life-long friendship between two Asian American women growing up in Southern California. Absolutely adored that book

This book sliced right into me - how decisions I made in relationships with men felt totally autonomous at the time. Only to be understood in a totally different way yrs later by the older me. #TrustExercise by Susan Choi. Thx for a great convo on @npratc https://t.co/lKSfv5xSnj

When Harriet Shawcross was a teen, she lost the power of conversation for one year. In her new book "Unspeakable," she examines how silence reshaped her life, and what happens to others when words simply fail. Produced by @Laur_npr, edited by @joliemyers. https://t.co/NQybRHurbE

Thoroughly enjoyed this conversation on @npratc with the delightful @alexwagner about her new book Futureface. Her journey to solve mysteries about her ancestry helped her appreciate the now, and the identity she chooses in her own lifetime. https://t.co/nAObWNnDWp

I was struck by how prominently food figured into breakups in this book. Like speaking for myself, I was once dumped over falafel, and it's never been quite my favorite thing to order since then.

Under the barrage of coverage of the opioid epidemic, it might be easy to assume it's a story we already understand. Read #Dopesick by @papergirlmacy and you'll see why the story is NOT changing. Thank you Beth, for a really great conversation on @npratc https://t.co/QNUQYctwJY

I mean, your whole novel speaks to this idea of being the first… Like, your telling of Anna May Wong's story reminds us that sometimes being the first comes with tremendous costs because sometimes being the first means simply being too early.

A story about three generations of a Chinese family trying to decide where to stay, where to belong…It's a story of dislocation, and it asks, "can you belong to more than one home?"

Why country music is the perfect genre for expressing queer love. Such a joy to talk to the man behind the fringed mask -- @orvillepeck -- about his latest album Bronco. Produced/edited by @jojom8ah/@patrickjaren @npratc https://n.pr/3utsacf

Kelsey Lu broke with her religion and left her family home to carve her own path. Accusing her of being inauthentic would perhaps be the most hurtful, most mortally wounding insult to hurl at her. Our conversation about her debut album "Blood" on @npratc. https://t.co/oGtqCbo2No
