Join us for book club on August 24th at 3 for the Northwest Yarns & Mercantile Book Club! This month's read is Nghi Vo's Siren Queen. Join us and enter the dazzling and dangerous world of pre-Hay’s Code Hollywood. Luli Wei is beautiful, talented, and desperate to become a star. But in this alternate version of the Golden Age of cinema, the studios are powered by ancient magic and the monsters on screen meet their match in the ones behind the camera.
Luli Wei knows the roles for a Chinese-American girl are limited to Asian stereotypes, but she is not having it. She would rather play a monster than a maid. But Luli doesn’t want to be stuck as a monster either. She wants fame, fortune, and stardom, and to get what she wants she will need to make deals in blood and magic. Siren Queen is a story of ambition, queer love, and a Hollywood outsider finding her own way to stardom.
With all of those luscious blues on the cover, we knew we had to select Walking After Midnight in Leviathan Fibres Tussar Silk. As elegant as a Golden Age move star, this yarn would pair beautifully with this book!
