Diary of a Single Asian Female is about Candy, a young and beautiful Asian woman in New York City who is on a fun-filled and often hilarious journey to search for Mr. Right, and in the process, finds herself. Candy tries her shot at love to find Mr. Right, whom she pictures to be a doctor, a lawyer or an alpha male Wall-Street guy. She goes on a series of blind dates with men interested in interracial relationships with Asian women but keeps her modesty by sticking to The Rules. What she doesn't know is that she's going to have to kiss a few frogs before she can find her prince. Candy's best friend, Lucy, a married hedonistic foodie fashionista, offers entertaining advice. When Candy has trouble paying her insurmountable student loans, Lucy suggests a simple solution: a sugar daddy. Will Candy agree to such a seemingly unromantic arrangement? Or will she continue to seek true love? Can she have it all? Written by an Asian female New Yorker who is fluent in both English and Mandarin Chinese, this book delivers comic gold with stories such as "My Mother Found My Jia Ji Ji [Fake Penis or Dildo]" and "The Podiatrist Love Slave with the Foot Fetish." Make no mistake about it: this is a book your Asian mama would not approve! It's hot and steamy, full of juicy details about sex, cheating, and shopping. The good parts are oh so satisfying, just like that jia ji ji in the top drawer. BIG MYSTERIES: 1. What does Candy's mom discover? (Hint: it's really embarrassing) 2. Why did Mr. Alpha do what he did? 3. Who will buy Candy the Hermes Birkin? 4. Will Candy find a sugar daddy? 5. Who is Candy's Mr. Perfect? 6. How will Candy find true love?

"Comic gold!"About the Author: Candy Chan, the creator of SingleinManhattan.com, is an Asian-American New Yorker who grew up watching Sex and the City and wondering why there was not an Asian version of it on TV. Her friends constantly tell her she should do stand up comedy since her stories are really funny, but she prefers to tell her stories in writing. Thus, she wrote the book, Diary of a Single Asian Female, Dating Adventures in New York City. Candy immigrated to the United States as a young girl and has been going on dates with men in New York for a long time. She kept a diary for fun and therapy, and her book, Diary of An Asian Female, is a fictionalized version of that diary. What is true and what is fiction? You be the judge. Candy Chan lives in New York City and enjoys writing, eating, walking around and taking photos.For more information, visit Singleinmanhattan.com.Instagram @JustineCandyBooks

In the shallows of the internet Paula is pushed to a moment of profound realisation: she, too, is but a lonely Asian woman looking for fun. Lonely Asian Woman is a wildly sentimental book about a life populated by doubles and transient friends, whirrs of off-kilter bathroom fans and divinatory whiffs of chlorine.

Few Westerners escape the images, expectations and misperceptions that lead us to see Asia as exotic, sensual, decadent, dangerous, and mysterious. Despite - and because of centuries of East-West interaction, the stereotypes of Western literature, stage, and screen remain pervasive icons: the tea-pouring, submissive, sexually available geisha girl; the steely cold dragon lady dominatrix; as well as the portrayal of the Asian male as effeminate and asexual. These "Oriental" illusions color our relations and relationships in ways even well-respected professional "Asia hands" and scholars don't necessarily see.The Asian Mystique lays out a provocative challenge to see Asia and Asians as they really are, with unclouded, deeroticized eyes. It traces the origins of Western stereotypes in history and in Hollywood, examines the phenomenon of 'yellow fever,' then goes on a reality tour of Asia's go-go bars, middle-class homes, college campuses, business districts, and corridors of power, providing intimate profiles of women's lives and vivid portraits of the human side of an Asia we usually mythologize too well to really understand. It strips away our misconceptions and stereotypes, revealing instead the fully dimensional human beings beyond our usual perceptions. The Asian Mystique is required reading for anyone with interest in or interaction with Asia or Asian-origin people, as well as any serious student or practitioner of East-West relations.

You might feel that this fight is too big for you. How on earth can you dismantle so many complex, long-standing systems of oppression? My answer: piece by piece. Brown Girl Like Me is an inspiring memoir and empowering manifesto that equips women with the confidence and tools they need to navigate the difficulties that come with an intersectional identity. Jaspreet Kaur unpacks key issues such as the media, the workplace, the home, education, mental health, culture, confidence and the body, to help South Asian women understand and tackle the issues that affect them, and help them be in the driving seat of their own lives. Jaspreet pulls no punches, tackling difficult topics from mental health and menstruation stigma to education and beauty standards, from feminism to cultural appropriation and microaggressions. She also addresses complex issues, such as how to manage being a brown feminist without rejecting your own culture, and why Asian girls – the second highest performing group of students in the country – aren't seen in larger numbers in universities and head offices. Interviews with brilliant South Asian Women of all walks of life as well as academic insight show what life is really like for brown women in the diaspora. Part toolkit, part call-to-arms, Brown Girl Like Me is essential reading for South Asian women as well as people with an interest in feminism and cultural issues, and will educate, inspire and spark urgent conversations for change.

To read this book is to become more human' - Claudia Rankine author of Citizen 'Hong says the book was 'a dare to herself', and she makes good on it: by writing into the heart of her own discomfort, she emerges with a reckoning destined to be a classic' - Maggie Nelson, author of The Argonauts What happens when an immigrant believes the lies they're told about their own racial identity? For Cathy Park Hong, they experience the shame and difficulty of "minor feelings". The daughter of Korean immigrants, Cathy Park Hong grew up in America steeped in shame, suspicion, and melancholy. She would later understand that these "minor feelings" occur when American optimism contradicts your own reality. With sly humour and a poet's searching mind, Hong uses her own story as a portal into a deeper examination of racial consciousness. This intimate and devastating book traces her relationship to the English language, to shame and depression, to poetry and artmaking, and to family and female friendship. A radically honest work of art, Minor Feelings forms a portrait of one Asian American psyche - and of a writer's search to both uncover and speak the truth.
