This book is gorgeous, from the dust jacket to the actual hard cover (so rare for publishers to put a design on that part!), to the clever Penguin Press logo that doubles as a paragraph symbol! Beautiful in every way!

I’m on page 118 of @pronounced_ing ’s and—while the story is nearly too recognizable for comfort—I’m enjoying how central are to the story.

Just finished Celest Ng's Our Missing Hearts.

After initial disappointment (the tone, story and style made me think it was YA, which is OK, but not when I expect A) I was riveted. Once the point of view changes a whole world of delicate thoughts and strong ideas opens up.

The world Ng describes is a fiction but it is scarily realistic. It's not hard to imagine it becoming real, we're halfway there already.

Started this by today. Such beautiful prose. It’s about Bird Gardner, who lives in America under laws meant to “protect American culture.” One day he receives a letter covered in cats from his mother, a Chinese American poet missing for years deemed by the state as unpatriotic. The book documents his search for his mom and his efforts to decode the letter. @bookstodon
