Happy Asian Pacific American Heritage Month 2024!
Happy Asian Pacific American Heritage Month 2024! And if you’re Canadian, Happy Asian Heritage Month! Come celebrate with all the books! (And get even more recs from past years’ posts!)
(Note: not all of the Asian authors or characters in these titles are specifically American. I thought it was worth highlighting more books than that specific title allowed.)

Fighting art block with doodles
Also practicing trying to fill the pages my sketchbook with anything
(I can’t continue my sketches most of the time without doubting the progress lol)
Been collecting books (trilogies, duologies and standalones) lately and even editions because I need to rest my eyes from my phone and ipad
I’d read them through PDFs but my eyesight’s already low enough 🥲
(I’m getting back to reading since the start of January and Booktok got a hold on me lately—)
‼️NO REPOSTS‼️

Jaune's Family: Grandma (Other)
Ruby: Wow... I can't believe you got beat up by Cardin and then sent to detention for three days. You're probably the unluckiest kid ever.
Jaune: Well, actually, no, that'd be my auntle. My grandma is SUPER strict with them.
Ruby: Auntle? What's an auntle?
Jaune: It's like someone who's an aunt and also an uncle.
Ruby: Really? Are they both, or...?
Jaune: I honestly don't know. My parents never really figured it out, and neither have I. But yeah, my grandma is really scary, apparently.
Ruby: Really? In what way?
Jaune: Well, I wasn't really allowed to go to their house, because my mom warned me to stay away. She said grandma made my auntle, uh, well, they're not really happy. Like, at all.
Ruby: What does your grandma do?
Jaune: I think I heard she's a scientist, but what kind, I have no idea.
Ruby: No, I mean to your auntle.
Jaune: Oh! Um, well, she kind of locks them alone in their room and doesn't feed them. Something about making them stronger.
Ruby: That's horrible! Why doesn't anyone stop her?!
Jaune: Like I said, grandma is super scary. So scary, in fact, that my dad had to grab me when I jumped in to help my auntle! That was the last I saw them, too.
Jaune: I hope they're okay.
---------------------------------------------------
Crona: Um, m-mother? I did as you asked. Um, c-can I go see Jaune soon? I'm worried about him since he left for Beacon. I heard he got in.
Oh? So, he snuck into an academy, too, eh? Perhaps I haven't given that boy enough due credit. He really is quite cunning, isn't he?

Ash’s Cabin by Jen Wang
Ash has always felt alone.
Adults ignore the climate crisis. Other kids Ash’s age are more interested in pop stars and popularity contests than in fighting for change. Even Ash’s family seems to be sleepwalking through life.
The only person who ever seemed to get Ash was their Grandpa Edwin. Before he died, he used to talk about building a secret cabin, deep…
