I contributed to the book "Bibliophile: Diverse Spines", authored by @diversespines and @janemount in which I recommend The Sympathizer by Viet Thanh Nguyen. And look what I received in the mail: the hand-painted artworks by the talented @janemount. https://t.co/ed1QQxfwlG

Thank you @littlebrown and @helenmrichard for sending me an ARC of @MelissaLFu's #PeachBlossomSpring. I can't wait to dive in and be transported to China, Taiwan & the US via this epic novel about 3 generations of a Chinese family, inspired by the life of the author's own father. https://t.co/mTDXCjd5YQ

THE FORTUNES OF JADED WOMEN is a hilarious while serious, exhilarating yet moving novel about a family of kickass Vietnamese American women who fearlessly pursue their happiness and healing, even when their fortunes were cursed.

Exquisite, heart-breaking and healing... Ocean’s millions of fans will be thrilled when this book is released in May 2025... I had high expectations after reading One Earth We Are Briefly Gorgeous and I must say that Ocean has done it again!

DUST CHILD is an act of decolonization and it has just received a STARRED REVIEW from LIBRARY JOURNAL: "Achingly honest and ultimately hopeful; essential reading for U.S. audiences." 😭 Grateful thanks to @BarbaraHoffert and many people who have stood by me. https://t.co/hiXYIFFXOS

Loved Ocean Vuong's @ocean_vuong new book of poetry. His voice is so important, so new, so thought-provoking. "How else do we return to ourselves but to fold The page so it points to the good part"
