If you’ve been looking for asexual representation, pick up this fun YA novel where the MC and most of the supporting cast are all asexual. There is a love story, but it’s a refreshing change from insta-love, stays ace-style, and takes a back seat to the heist. When Jack’s mom is arrested because her fellow casino owner sold her out, of course he’s going to assemble his friends and take down the bad guy. I enjoyed watching them do it.

I enjoyed Yellowface better than Babel, I think because R. F. Kuang was less heavy handed with the points she wanted to make. Perhaps strangely, considering this book is about some pitfalls of publishing and deciding where the line of plagiarism is, it made me want to start writing again. I think that’s because the passion and love for writing really stand out. I was concerned going into this book because I heard the author wanted it to feel like an anxiety attack, but that thankfully wasn’t my experience. If you’re on the fence about R. F. Kuang, I recommend giving Yellowface a try.
