I am SO THRILLED to announce my next book! With WHEN YOU WISH UPON A LANTERN š®, I wanted to write a contemporary book that feels magical, with the magic created by kind acts for others. š« It's also a love letter to my culture featuring some of my favorite holidays, folktales, and traditions. š Being an author was the wish that I wrote on my metaphorical lantern and sent into the air years ago. Iām over the moon that WHEN YOU WISH UPON A LANTERN will be my fourth published book. Thank you, everyone, for your support. š Iām overjoyed to be joining the @vikingbooks & @penguinteen family!! All the thanks to Jenny Bak for championing this. What an honor it is to work with you. Thank you to my agent Kathleen Rushall & @AndreaBrownlit! ⨠I also love that this announcement came out during Taiwanese American Heritage week and #AAPI month! š„° . . . . . #WhenYouWishUponaLantern #booksaremagic #igreads #yalit #booknerd #booklove #authorlife #bookish #bookishlife #iwriteya #ireadya #youngadultfiction #booklove #wishing #author #writinglife #writerslife #authorsofinstagram #yaromance #yacontemporary #romcom #romcombooks #booknews #booklover #booksarelife #aapiheritagemonth #aapihm #aapibooks #aapibookmonth https://www.instagram.com/p/COv7pBTLeZh/?igshid=16qnbe80ov861
