On this episode we chat with author Abigail Hing Wen about her recently released debut novel LOVEBOAT, TAIPEI. A coming-of-age story about a college bound girl named Ever Wong, torn between pursuing her parent's expectations and her own personal dreams, who finds herself spending the summer of a lifetime in Taiwan attending the Overseas Compatriot Youth Formosa Study Tour, also infamously known as "Loveboat."

LOVEBOAT, TAIPEI is available now at booksellers everywhere!
