An on-going attempt to track Asian authors in my Interested/TBR (and hopefully Finished) categories. Books are generally fiction/lit fic/fantasy with some memoirs. Authors span West to East Asia, the Asian diaspora, and mixed-race folx.

discover korean literature through women's writtings.

A book list celebrating novels with bold flat illustrated covers. I'm talking colourful, graphic, design-forward books that look beautiful on your shelf and would inspire any designer. All genres welcome but let's stick with YA to adult books.

short story collections by a single author in a variety of genres. recommendations welcome!

a collection of books im interested in which are releasing this year (2026). no particular order

Recommendations from Pagebound Club.

This isn’t just “weird girl lit,” it’s weird girl books with a MESSAGE. with something to say and doing it in a weird way!! No shame to the angry woman weird girl books but that ain’t what I’m talking about. I’m talking space, magical realism, weird kinks as metaphors. I’m talking new takes on the form, books that do things differently. If you know, you know. These are some of my favorite types of books and nearly everything on this list I’ve read and loved.

World's softest lisp and currently my favorite narrator! Sound-sensitivity friendly, no hard consonants or whistling S's. *(If your ears dislike lisps then flip everything I just said inside out and consider this a list to avoid narration on)

(Mostly South) Korean fiction recommendations from several Korean culture and history courses.
