SUMMARY:July - Special Session Book Club
DESCRIPTION:We are adding in a Special Session Book Club for July! Our past couple of book club votes have showed a strong crew of folks eager to bookclub Unassimilable by Bianca Mabute-Louie. We’ve been wanting to read it too\, so we’re opening a nonfiction special session book club for anyone interested in digging into this diasporic manifesto with us! We’ll be gathering the afternoon of July 26th at 3pm at the bookshop. Feel free to bring a snack or beverage. \nAs always\, the only prerequisite to joining this club is purchasing your copy here\, in-person at the shop. Though RSVP’s help us plan\, so please scoop up one of the free tickets below and don’t forget to show up for the conversation! \nMore about Unassimilable:\nA scholar and activist’s brilliant socio-political examination of Asian Americans who refuse to assimilate and instead build their own belonging on their own terms outside of mainstream American institutions. \nIn this hard-hitting and deeply personal book\, a combination of manifesto and memoir\, scholar\, sociologist\, and activist Bianca Mabute-Louie transforms the ways we understand race\, class\, citizenship\, and the concept of assimilation and its impact on Asian American communities from the nineteenth century to present day. \nUNASSIMILABLE opens with a focus on the San Gabriel Valley (SGV)\, the first Asian ethnoburb in Los Angeles County and in the nation\, where she grew up. A suburban neighborhood with a conspicuous Asian immigrant population\, SGV thrives not because of its assimilation into Whiteness\, but because of its unapologetic catering to its immigrant community. \nMabute-Louie then examines “Predominantly White Institutions With A lot of Asians” and how these institutions shape the racial politics of Asian Americans and Asian internationals\, including the fight against affirmative action and the fight for ethnic studies. She moves on to interrogate the role of the religion\, showing how the immigrant church is a sanctuary even as it is an extension of colonialism and the American Empire. In the book’s conclusion\, Bianca looks to the future\, boldly proposing a reconsideration of the term Asian American for a new label that better clarifies who Asians in America are today. \nUNASSIMILABLE offers a radical vision of Asian American political identity informed by a refusal of Whiteness and collective care for each other. It is a forthright declaration against assimilation and in service of cross-racial\, anti-imperialist solidarity and revolutionary politics. Scholarly yet accessible\, informative and informed\, this book is a major addition to Ethnic Studies and American Studies.

SUMMARY:July Final Fridays Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our Final Friday’s Book Club as we dive into The Spear Cuts Through Water by Simon Jimenez!! This fantasy novel has been a steadily popular one with our community since we opened and if you know someone who has read it\, they’ve likely also made you want to pick it up too. We can’t wait to read through and talk about this one with y’all in community. It does come in at a respectable 544 pages so I’m suggesting we do a check in for the July 25th book club and see where everyone’s at and discuss from there\, then do a final deep dive at our August book club gathering once we’ve all finished. Though if you think we’ve got it and can finish the book by the 25\, reach out and let me know! \nAs always\, the only prerequisite to getting into this club is purchase your book in-person at our shop and showing up for the book club. Please RSVP by getting one of the free tickets below\, this really does help us plan! \n  \nA little more about The Spear Cuts Through Water:\nTwo warriors shepherd an ancient god across a broken land to end the tyrannical reign of a royal family in this epic fantasy from the author of The Vanished Birds. \n“A beguiling fantasy not to be missed.”—Evelyn Skye\, New York Times bestselling author of The Crown’s Game \nWINNER OF THE IAFA CRAWFORD AWARD • WINNER OF THE BRITISH FANTASY AWARD • SHORTLISTED FOR THE URSULA K. LE GUIN AWARD • SHORTLISTED FOR THE IGNYTE AWARD \nONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: Oprah Daily\, Vulture\, Polygon\, She Reads\, Gizmodo\, Kirkus Reviews\, The Quill to Live \nThe people suffer under the centuries-long rule of the Moon Throne. The royal family—the despotic emperor and his monstrous sons\, the Three Terrors—hold the countryside in their choking grip. They bleed the land and oppress the citizens with the frightful powers they inherited from the god locked under their palace. \nBut that god cannot be contained forever. \nWith the aid of Jun\, a guard broken by his guilt-stricken past\, and Keema\, an outcast fighting for his future\, the god escapes from her royal captivity and flees from her own children\, the triplet Terrors who would drag her back to her unholy prison. And so it is that she embarks with her young companions on a five-day pilgrimage in search of freedom—and a way to end the Moon Throne forever. The journey ahead will be more dangerous than any of them could have imagined. \nBoth a sweeping adventure story and an intimate exploration of identity\, legacy\, and belonging\, The Spear Cuts Through Water is an ambitious and profound saga that will transport and transform you—and is like nothing you’ve ever read before.

SUMMARY:May-June Book Club - Every Drop Is a Man's Nightmare!
DESCRIPTION:Our “Final Fridays” Book Club had to get readjusted due to a very busy May and an end-of-June vacation\, so we’ll be gathering on Saturday\, June 21st to discuss Every Drop Is A Man’s Nightmare by Megan Kamalei Kakimoto. No spoilers- but we really enjoyed this book and can’t wait to dig into it with y’all. At our last book club\, folks asked about potlucking so we’ll bring some snacks- feel free to bring something small to share if you’re so inclined (but no pressure). Pick up a copy in-person ahead of time at the shop! \nAbout Every Drop Is a Man’s Nightmare: \nMegan Kamalei Kakimoto’s wrenching and sensational debut story collection presents a Hawai’i where unruly sexuality and generational memory overflow the postcard image of paradise and the boundaries of the real\, where the superstitions born of the islands take on the weight of truth. \nA childhood encounter with a wild pua’a (pig) on the haunted Pali highway portends one young woman’s fraught relationship with her pregnant body. An elderly widow begins seeing her deceased lover in a giant flower. A kanaka writer\, mid-manuscript\, feels her raw pages quaking and knocking in the briefcase. \nEvery Drop Is a Man’s Nightmare is both a fierce love letter to Hawaiian identity and mythology\, and a searing dispatch from an occupied territory threatening to erupt with violent secrets.

SUMMARY:Book Release Party - Death in the Cards by Mia P. Manansala
DESCRIPTION:Restoried Bookshop is excited to host Chicago’s own Mia P. Manansala and celebrate her YA debut- Death in the Cards! Her Tita Rosie’s Kitchen Mystery series is very popular with our at our shop and we cannot wait to introduce her YA novel to our community. \nMia will be joined in conversation by Gloria Chao for an exciting afternoon discussion. Adding to the festivities\, Camelia Bakes is providing a beautiful cake to celebrate Mia’s YA debut and Salamat Designs will be selling handmade jewelry benefitting meals at an elementary school in the Philippines. \nCopies of her book will be available to purchase at the event in both hardcover and paperback. You don’t want to miss this exciting event and chance to be among the first to pick up your own copy of Death in the Cards! \n  \nMia P. Manansala (she/her) is a writer from Chicago who loves books\, baking\, and bad-ass women. She is the author of the multi-award-winning Tita Rosie’s Kitchen Mystery series and the forthcoming YA novel DEATH IN THE CARDS (May 13\, 2025). She uses humor (and murder) to explore aspects of the Filipino diaspora\, queerness\, and her millennial love for pop culture. \nA lover of all things geeky\, Mia spends her days procrasti-baking\, playing RPGs and otome games\, reading cozy mysteries and diverse romance\, and gazing lovingly at her dog. \nFind her on Facebook and Instagram: @MPMtheWriter\nCheck out her website: www.miapmanansala.com \n— \nTitle: Death in the Cards\nPublisher: Delacorte Press (May 13\, 2025)\nISBN: 9780593897928\n(Cover designer: Ray Shappell ; Cover artist: Alex Cabal) \nThe young adult debut from the award-winning author of Arsenic and Adobo! When a high school tarot reader’s latest client goes missing after a troubling reading\, she must apply everything she’s learned from her private investigator mother to solve a case of her own. \nDanika Dizon is a natural problem solver. Thanks to her private investigator mom and mystery author dad\, she’s well equipped with the skills to offer guidance to anxious classmates who come to her for tarot readings between classes. For a price\, of course. \nBut one of her clients isn’t just worried about finals. Something or someone has her terrified. And when the girl vanishes after an ominous reading\, her younger sister Gaby begs for Danika’s help to find her. Danika takes the case to prove to her parents that she’s an ace detective—and that her deck is never wrong. It says change is coming . . . \nWhat starts off as a compelling challenge quickly devolves into a darker mystery. Turns out the missing girl was living a secret life. A life that somebody wants to keep buried. If Danika’s not careful\, the Death card that started it all might no longer be symbolic—it could be fate.
