Yellowface by R.F. Kuang

dark emotional funny informative reflective slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
(I read this as an ARC) umm all I'm gonna say is Kuang is clearly familiar with the mind of the self-victimizing white author. She captures that mindset so perfectly: while still humanizing that main character, she also provides us with all the self-rationalization it takes to steal from the marginalized and still think you're the one suffering for it. Rebecca is insane for this one and she is incapable of writing a bad book
