Kuan Yin Oracle (Pocket Edition): Kuan Yin. It’s a casually hilarious, decidedly feminist recounting of a family of women told with an unflinching eye - just like Auder’s on the cover. A seasoned raconteur, she has a way of plopping us into her life with a clear voice that relays the complex and sometimes heartbreaking travails of sharing a claustrophobic apartment within the walls of New York’s infamous Chelsea Hotel with a much younger sister and a single, struggling-artist mother in the ’70s and ’80s. In this sparkling debut, a grown-up Auder tells those million stories with delicious prose, sharp satirical humor, and cheeky whimsy.

Elias completes his Trials but in the end is forced to choose Laia’s life over winning the Empire. Eventually sparks begin to fly between these two characters.
