## Crazy Women Book Recs

Some of the craziest women I've ever seen in books - from toxic to straight delulu we love to read about them but not be them!

Books I mention:
- Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke
- Hooked by Asako Yuzuki
- Yellowface by R.F. Kuang
- Immaculate Conception by Ling Ling Huang
- Sublimation by Isabel J. Kim

**Suprise: the Wild Card Book Club is officially happening 📚!**  
Woooo! So, the whole reason I built Wild Card Reads was to have a place where we could actually _talk_ about books beyond a 60-second video where I'm gesturing wildly at a cover. So I'm genuinely thrilled to tell you the Wild Card Book Club is here.  
Here's how it works:  
- **Everyone** — free members too — gets into the Discord, where we hang out, scream about plot twists, and post unhinged reactions in real time. Come say hi!  
- **$5 members** get the heart of it: our **monthly live virtual book club session** (real faces, real conversation, actual humans!), potential guest appearances by authors, early reveals of what we're reading next so you can grab the book in time, _and_ a say in what we pick together. You and me, building the TBR of our lives.  
- **$12 members** get everything above, plus first dibs on the bigger stuff I'm dreaming up for down the road — including, fingers crossed, some in-person meetups one day. 🤞

Our **first pick and the full details — how to join the live session, the date, and a guest I'm very excited about — are dropping in a dedicated post later this week.** Keep your eyes peeled. 👀

**okay, now help me out of my slump**  
I hope you pick up one of these books or if you have already read one message me in the Discord chat so we can yap!  
Now I need _you_, what should I read next? I've started a few books while I wait for my copy of The Ballad of Fallen Dragons to arrive so I need some recs. What did you read for AAPI Month that I have to get my hands on? Come yell at me in the Discord — and not for nothing, a few of these picks could be on the book club shortlist. 👀  
Thank you for being here for dispatch #1. I hope someone read this to the end because I YAPPED.  
Talk soon, Samia 🌷
