I went into this book nearly blind. I knew it was about the publishing industry and that's about it. Kuang explores racism and plagiarism in the industry with a spooky mystery undercurrent. I was captivated nearly from the beginning and honestly shocked by the ending. Definitely pick this up if you're a fan of her other books.
