It’s launch day!! Drawing on a decade of research, CHINA UNBOUND is now officially published! Thank you so much for everyone's support. Here's one last thread about #ChinaUnbound & options to order here: joannachiu.com/how-to-order Image
China Unbound weaves historical & political context with my reporting across four continents to present comparative case studies on major topics like Beijing’s far-reaching authoritarianism, the #MengWanzhou saga, and China's growing economic clout through the New Silk Road. Image
#ChinaUnbound has been selected as a best book of fall by the @globeandmail, @TorontoStar, @quillandquire, @VancouverSun and @cbcbooks!

Publishers Weekly said it is “doggedly reported and fiercely argued, offering essential insight." joannachiu.com/reviews

In June I started a series of (TBR)tweets named #TheBigResetSynopsis

Today I will share the core of #TBRchapter1 – The History of
Money

There’s no limit to central bank expanding its balance sheet in
theory.

Reserve Bank of Atlanta (2012)

Inflation is a more fundamental danger than speculative investment. Some countries seem to be in the unusual situation where they are trying to create inflation. They will come to regret that.
– Paul Volcker (2013)

@vlaqq_ started this and I thought to jump on it.
I nominate @tireddbtw, @AmeenMujahyd, @ChukwuebukaIbe4, @Jameelahysf, @Raisa_therose, @RaliaDdainty1 to do same.

A thread of all the books I've read since the lockdown.

1. "Children of Virtue and Vengeance" by @tomi_adeyemi
For a sequel sceptic, I had expected something below the bar set by CBB, but I actually enjoyed it more. There was more action, more magic and such cliffhanger ending that only leaves you wanting more. Can't wait for book 3.
2. "Mine Boy" by Peter Abrahams
Anyone who knows my bookie life knows that I seldom read classics. They are too political for me. But "Mine Boy" for some reason is different. I reviewed it here: link.medium.com/aeVs9siTR7

The #Reads for the Rest of Us list for Dec is coming soon @MsMagazine! I'm also working on the mother of all "most anticipated" reads (by women, #TGNC, #queer, #fat, #immigrant, #neurodivergent, international, and otherwise underrepresented writers) of 2020 list.
It's a big job! I have over 300 titles that I am sifting thru; so many look fantastic. #Fiction, #nonfiction, #poetry, and more. Some I've already #read, others not yet. I've heard from or reached out to over 65 #publishers and #publicists, they are working hard for you!
Do I know about your #newbook? Message me, email me, Tweet me, if you're not sure. My goal is to help raise visibility of historically marginalized #writers. I'm so lucky to get to learn about and read your amazing work along the way!

Sundays are for #SundayRead! Sharing links to pieces about #feminism, women's rights and women's lives that resonated with me this week.
In our #feminist/#globaldev jargon, "women's empowerment" is a phrase that makes me go 🤔😤😡🤬. @FrancoiseGirard breaks down the need for political empowerment and how philanthropy can help make it a reality. Thorough & insightful.

A movement, not a moment: that's what it'll take for #SexForGrades to end. Amazing to see a group of African #feminists come together with a strong statement - including a useful list of resources. Thank you
@kikimordi @shailjapatel @OhTimehin & others.

I've gotten questions about whether I'm still accepting emails, catalogs, galleys for consideration for my Ms lists and other reviews. YES, I am! This is more true now: I want to know about all your #feminist, #queer, POC, WOC, womxnist, trans, enby, neurodivergent, etc books!
If you don't know how to get me, send me a message and I will get you the info. More info about what I'm looking for: look at the intro of any Ms #Reads for the Rest of Us list msmagazine.com/tag/feminist-k… AND/OR my review policy page: karlajstrand.com/review-policy/

I've finally carved out enough quiet time to go through all those open tabs in my browser and read the articles I'd marked as "to read later"(87 tabs! Don't judge my life🤦🏾‍♀️) Sharing five outstanding pieces that put my #feminist brain on 🔥

Issa thread!

#amreading #ICYMI
My favorite: @FunmiB's spot-on piece about accountability between woke #feminist circles, and what it means for how we define #sisterhood. Published in the ever so excellent @AfriFeminists blog.

"Who does your humility serve?" Loved @TheJamaJack's glorious celebration of her own dopeness! But her insights on why many women shy away from embracing their greatness felt like a deep cut. A reminder for me to fight my impostor's syndrome.

2018: My Year of Reading. A thread that follows my reading journey from January to December. Every book I've read with a 280 character review. Tagged a few folks who influence the shape of my literary life 📚 #THEBOOKCHAT #DisruptTexts #TeachLivingPoets 📚
1. Never Let Me Go; Kazuo Ishiguro: A supremely crafted narrative begins unassumingly, but quickly reveals a different notion of childhood innocence and coming of age. The conversational tone fooled me into thinking I was walking into a world I understood. Nobel worthy.
2. We Should All Be Feminists; Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie: As an author who breathes eloquence, Adichie doesn't disappoint. This short book/long essay is insightful and logical and human. If we want to raise boys without the toxic masculinity, this is on the required reading list.
