"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
(and each other) BY LIVIA BLACKBURNE
Goodreads Description:
You’ve Got Mail gets a YA twist in this rom-com that spotlights the power of activism and community organizing in the face of gentrification.
Clementine Chan
believes in the power of the written word. Under the pseudonym
Hibiscus, she runs a popular blog reviewing tea shops and discussing
larger issues within her Chinatown community. She has a loyal, kind
following, save for this one sour grape named BobaBoy888.
Danny Mok
is allergic to change, and the gentrification seeping into Chinatown
breaks his heart. He channels his frustration into his internet alter
ego, BobaBoy888, bickering with local blogger Hibiscus over all things
Chinatown and tea.
When a major corporation reveals plans that
threaten to shut down the Mok’s beloved tea shop, Clementine and Danny
find themselves working together in real life to save this community
they both love. But as they fall hard for this cause—and each other—they
have no clue that their online personas have been fighting for years.
When the truth comes to light, can Danny and Clementine still find their happily-ever-after?
Format: 336 pages, Hardcover
Expected Publication: July 18, 2023 by Quill Tree Books
Pre-Order: Blackwells and Amazon
Normally this would not really be a book for me, as I do not read a lot of contemporary books. Buut. This one is written by Livia Blackburne :) I'm a bit behind on her books, but have been a fan of her for years now. <3 And so of course I'm going to give this one a try too :) And I think it sounds and looks adorable.
What are you waiting for on this beloved Wednesday?
