Jean Chen Ho recommends
My Person (2026)
Téa Mutonji
"This is a sharp and sexy book, full of indelible moments when the truth gushes out and what's said cannot be unsaid. An unflinching, heartbreaking examination of all that comes with loving, and losing, a best friend. A fabulous debut -- deeply enjoyable."
Everything to the Sea (2026)
Alicia Upano
"With equal parts wisdom and wit, Everything to the Sea tells about love as it's felt when frustrated or betrayed in the face of too many other needed and urgent things, and the many ways that one finds family in surprising, beautiful turns. Alicia Upano's striking debut will simultaneously quicken your pulse and force you to slow down, take a deep breath - this is a life-affirming, heartbreaking novel you won't want to miss."
Come Undone (2026)
Eddie Huang
"Come for the satirical millennial cringe and over-the-top luxury lifestyle fantasy, stay for the surprisingly sensitive portrayal of a bombastic, bighearted Asian American dudebro who risks it all for a chance at the real thing."
