Book Review: Tokyo Dreaming by Emiko Jean

Hellllloooo! I hope you’re all taking care of yourselves. It has been too long and certainly so much has happened since I last popped on here. I’ve been at my job for almost a year now (oh how time flies), and it has been wonderful. Perhaps I’ll do a separate post on all that jazz.

ANYWAY! I’m thrilled to be chatting about Tokyo Dreaming by Emiko Jean, which is also a New York Times Bestseller! TD was released on May 31, and it’s the follow up to the well-loved and one of my favorite books from recent years, Tokyo Ever After. Thank you to the publisher for sending me an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review. As always, my review will be spoiler-free.
