Friday Book Pick — Sushi for One? by Camy Tang

Welcome to the weekend! For those of you looking for a few quiet reading hours over the weekend, I try to spend each Friday blog recommending a great read. I generally emphasize fiction titles with Christian themes.

Today’s pick is Camy Tang‘s Sushi for One? I fell in love with Tang’s writing after picking up Only Uni at the Mount Hermon Christian Writer’s Conference (see previous Book Pick). I find it fascinating to be sumberged in the world of her Japanese-American characters. The main character, Lex Sakai, is everything that I’m not — athletic, single-minded, Asian, unmarried, and part of an extremely nosy extended family. And yet, reading Sushi for One? I am pulled into the character in a way that I don’t often experience. Camy Tang also never fails to find the humour in every situation — and trust me — her characters get into many, many humorous situations.

So, if you feel in need of a little romance – with a kick of Wasabi — pick up Sushi for One? Even if you prefer hamburgers!
