"It's distressing to realize that you're changing. You can see yourself changing in the eyes of the people closest to you." Zibby is joined by YZ Chin to discuss her first novel, Edge Case. While the book is not autobiographical, YZ explains which elements of her own immigration journey inspired parts of the story and shared how obtaining her green card allowed her to finally pursue her dream of writing a novel. The two also talk about how the book portrays issues like mental illness and gender dynamics in the workplace with honesty and compassion.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: amzn.to/37rXYSmBookshop: bit.ly/2X2xBAG** Follow @totallybookedwithzibby on Instagram for listening guides and more. **(Music by Morning Moon Music.
