American Born Chinese meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer in this grounded supernatural YA mash-up.
The struggle to get into a top-tier college consumes 16-year-old Genie's every waking thought. But when she discovers she's a celestial spirit who's powerful enough to bash through the gates of heaven with her fists, her perfectionist existence is shattered. Enter Quentin, a transfer student from China whose tone-deaf assertiveness beguiles Genie to the brink of madness. Quentin nurtures Genie's bodacious transformation - sometimes gently, sometimes aggressively - as her sleepy suburb in the Bay Area comes under siege from hell spawn.
This epic YA debut draws from Chinese folklore, features a larger-than-life heroine, and perfectly balances the realities of Genie's grounded high school life with the absurd supernatural world she finds herself commanding.

It’s a story about stepping into your power. I finished it in a couple of days and I can’t wait to jump into the sequel. If you like this book, read both of the Kyoshi books by F.C. Lee.
The only negative thing I’ll say is that it seemed like there were some issues in the recording booth. I don’t mean narrator Nancy Wu (who I love). There were a surprising amount of awkward, unintentional pauses and slight background noises, like flipping pages. Still, Nancy Wu makes up for it with her enchanting, easy-to-lose-yourself narration.
