Praise for A Career in Books:
"Kate Gavino has created a welcome jolt of a book—a hilarious, addictive read that just happens to reclaim Asian American history while illuminating our present. And it’s fun to read. Whew, we needed this one."—Mira Jacob, author of Good Talk
"With quill-sharp narration and spot-on details, this delightful graphic novel from Gavino (Last Night’s Reading) depicts New York City publishing through the eyes of three Asian American NYU grads who share an apartment... Specificity is the fire that fuels this witty social satire, in which fairness doesn’t always triumph, but friendship does."
—Publishers Weekly (STARRED REVIEW)
