Not Here to Be Liked by Michelle Quach
5.0
I went into this book only knowing that it had academic rivalry, but I stayed because of how impactful it is.
I am at lost for words, to be quite honest, but this got me out of a book slump. It's such a fun read—it honestly feels like my favourite milk tea: iced jasmine milk tea with coconut jelly. In my mind, I'm like walking with someone under blossoming trees just right when the sun is painting the sky with an orange blush while reading this story.
It's beautiful to me how relatable Eliza is, being Asian myself. And also a writer. I loved that aspect of the story. I cannot arrange right now my thoughts, but seriously this book deserves all the awards. I love it so much, I think it's my new comfort read.
