CONGRATS! I can't wait to read your book.

Best book of the summer and the year for me came out exactly two years ago: Monica Byrne's The Actual Star. I don't want to say too much about it except that it's entrancing and so, so imaginative. Wonderful character arcs and world building. One comparison would be Station Eleven; the world building also reminds me of NK Jemisin's Broken Earth trilogy. Anyway. A huge recommend from me. I have not stopped thinking about it since I finished it -- and no doubt I'll re-read it soon.

Congratulations on your manuscript! Excited to read it! For book recommendations I am a fan of my upcoming book, For the Culture: Phenomenal Black Women and Femmes in Food. Out 9/19. I also love Yellowface by R. F. Kuang. Perfect satire.
