Resumen del Editor
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.

Historia
The Earth is under siege - and no one knows about it because the invaders erase those whom they consume. A handful of men and women stand on the border between the mundane and the magical. They have a special spark of soul - not quite enough to be naturally gifted in spellcraft but greater than the average person, a tiny flame that can ignite incredible potential. They possess the ability to fight back against the Vorid: the ability to become a Contractor.

Fed up with her wild behavior, 16-year-old Lex’s parents ship her off to upstate New York to live with her Uncle Mort for the summer, hoping that a few months of dirty farm work will whip her back into shape. But Uncle Mort’s true occupation is much dirtier than shoveling manure. He’s a Grim Reaper. And he’s going to teach Lex the family business. She quickly assimilates into the peculiar world of Croak, a town populated by reapers who deliver souls from this life to the next.

The Price family has spent generations studying the monsters of the world, working to protect them from humanity - and humanity from them. Enter Verity Price. Despite being trained from birth as a cryptozoologist, she'd rather dance a tango than tangle with a demon, and is spending a year in Manhattan while she pursues her career in professional ballroom dance. Sounds pretty simple, right?

Historia
Some cryptic words wake college student Jess Ballard from a terrifying dream into an even more terrifying reality. Jess’ life has never been what anyone would call easy; doing damage control in the wake of your nomadic, alcoholic mother doesn't exactly make for a storybook childhood. But now, her world has fallen apart just when it should be coming together: her mother gone—dead under mysterious circumstances; her life uprooted to stay with estranged relatives she’s never met; and there’s something odd about some of the people she’s been meeting at school: They’re dead.

But Evie’s about to realize that she may very well be at the center of a dark faerie prophecy promising destruction to all paranormal creatures. So much for normal.

She won't rest until she's sent every walking corpse back to its grave. Forever. Had anyone told Alice Bell that her entire life would change course between one heartbeat and the next, she would have laughed. From blissful to tragic, innocent to ruined? Please. But that's all it took. One heartbeat. A blink, a breath, a second, and everything she knew and loved was gone. Her father was right. The monsters are real.

Amazing Performance
The story and writing are very good YA superhero fantasy, but Nancy Wu's performance is outstanding. Every single character is fully fleshed and distinct. Will actively seek more from her to listen to.

Super fun retelling
If you enjoy the original Chinese folklore at all, you’ll enjoy this retelling. Humorous, with enough serious moments to bring to life a really fun story - Nancy Wu is perfect for this book.

Enjoyed it more than I expected.
Bottom line? This was more fun than I expected and was a cool adaptation of "Journey to the West" I am not the target demographic for YA novels, and only tried this because of how much I enjoyed the Avatar the last airbender Kyoshi books. Yee is a great writer and Nancy Wu is a great fit for both stories. If you're looking for something fun and maybe out of your regular pattern, give this a try. I'm glad I did.

Kawaii version of the Sun Wu Kong for young adults
Loved it! Great and imaginative writing by FC Yee and another great performance by Nancy Wu. I'm so immersed in the story I sometimes forget it's not the Avatar speaking, it's Ruyi Jingu Bang. As a non Chinese speaker I appreciate it's integrating into the story and not changing traditional names just because I don't yet know them. Will be on my yearly re-read list.

Max
I usually don’t love the YA genre, but this book was such a delectable blend of mythology, action, insecurity, the pressures of being a teenager, the Chinese-American experience. Anyone who calls this a “Chinese Buffy the Vampire Slayer” is underselling the layers and layers of Chinese mythology explored in the book. The tone is a little teeny-bopper-y but not in a distracting way.
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.

Surprised at my enjoyment
This is a little different target age group for me but I've read or watched the story on the Monkey King in the past and found this rendition to be delightful. I'll be looking for more work from F.C. Yee snd I just love Nancy Wu.
