I love a good crossover and I’m even more excited to read one of my fav romances (Pride & Prejudice) through an Asian-American lens 😭

It’s hard to explain how much it means to feel connected to the MCs culturally, especially when you don’t always see yourself represented in romance. It’s why I’m extra excited to dive into this ARC 🤓

Thank you @authorjaycilee!!

And everyone, quick- give me your fav romances with Asian or Latina FMCs so I can get all in my represented feels 🥰 by @authorjaycilee
