This book gave me a stomachache in the most viciously brilliant way! Yellowface is an absolutely relentless send-up and take-down of racism in publishing, a razor sharp literary thriller you won’t be able to put down, narrated by an unreliable and utterly unlikeable lead—and you won’t be able to tear yourself away from reading every rotten word she says. If you love a train wreck AND books that push you to think more critically, pick this one up!
