This book is for everyone who thoroughly enjoys hours-long videos breaking down internet drama. So I ate it up.

June is so unbearable that it almost feels too on the nose. Her casual racism and how she justifies and rationalizes all the awful shit she does is almost cartoonish. And I say almost because I can't really fully criticise it when I could easily see people doing and thinking exactly the same.

Yellowface is clearly meant to be a satirical take on the racism and biases of the industry, and I think it achieves it really well. Overall, I think it doesn't really goes as deep on the issues as other Kuang's works do, so it sometimes can feels as if is not really SAYING as much as it could instead of just rehashing twitter threads because they annoyed the author. But I didn't mind it as much. Because it was fun.
