25 New 2024 Reads by Asian and Pacific Islander Authors

As we roll into a new year, here are 25 reads by Asian / Asian American / Pacific Islander authors I’m tracking for 2024. This is a cross genre list with emphasis on romance, but it includes both adult and YA books. And contemporary fiction, thrillers along with the romance. Obviously, this is just a starting point for the year and there are a few indie authors whose links aren’t up yet. This list will be updated in my Bookshop.org shop over the course of 2024. [1/15 update: it’s up to 40 books!]

The 2023 Edition is here.

This post includes affiliate links that kick us a small percentage at no cost to you if you use them to shop. If this post is useful and helps you discover a new author, please use the links to support my work — thanks!
