Gina Chung recommends

A Beast Slinks Towards Beijing (2026)
Alice Evelyn Yang
"A dark, glittering gem of a book. Yang plumbs the depths of the human heart with sumptuous prose, weaving an enthralling tale of family curses, inheritances, and excavated histories that will stay with readers long afterwards. A novel that haunts and enchants in equal measure."

Gingko Season (2025)
Naomi Xu Elegant
"Exquisitely written and deeply felt. Suffused with a gentle, ever-precise sense of humor, Gingko Season is a resonant and tender portrayal of the complexities of connection and attachment. [It] perfectly captures the loneliness and hope of youth, and the delightfully disorienting sensation of becoming unmoored in love."
