Wow. Just wow. This book will stick with me for a long time. It full displays all the conversations held currently on diversity, tokenism, reverse racism/white fragility, privilege, beauty/horror of social media... All the while providing me a greater appreciation of the publishing world and what goes with it. What a wild thrilling ride Yellowface is. I could not stop listening and thought about it when I wasn't listening.
