We sit down for an author chat with Lisa Lee to talk with her about about her debut novel <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/american-han-lisa-lee/5ba34db7f3077238?ean=9781643757254&next=t&aid=11692&listref=author-interviews" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">American Han</a>, a Korean American family drama about the Kims, a family whose members are each going through their own personal crises. When an even bigger crisis occurs the whole family is forced to come together and deal with the consequences of decades of built up resentment and estrangement, all stemming from the relentless pursuit of the "Amerian Dream."Follow Lisa on Instagram at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lisaleehello/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@lisaleehello</a> and check out her new novel <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/american-han-lisa-lee/5ba34db7f3077238?ean=9781643757254&next=t&aid=11692&listref=author-interviews" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">American Han</a> available now on the <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/throwback-maurene-goo/18639107?aid=11692&ean=9781638930204&listref=author-interviews" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Books & Boba bookshop</a>!Books & Boba is a podcast dedicated to reading and featuring books by Asian and Asian American authorsSupport the Books & Boba Podcast by:<ul><li><a href="https://www.patreon.com/booksandboba" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Joining our Patreon to receive exclusive perks</a></li><li><a href="https://booksandboba.captivate.fm/bookshop" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Purchasing books at our bookshop</a></li><li><a href="https://booksandboba.captivate.fm/merch" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Rocking our Books & Boba merch</a></li></ul> Follow our hosts:<ul><li>Reera Yoo (<a href="https://twitter.com/reeraboo" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@reeraboo</a>)</li><li>Marvin Yueh (<a href="https://twitter.com/MarvinYueh" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@marvinyueh</a>)</li></ul> Follow us:<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/booksandboba/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a></li><li><a href="https://twitter.com/BooksandBoba" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter</a></li><li><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/197124-books-boba" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Goodreads</a></li><li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/booksandboba" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a></li></ul> The Books & Boba April 2026 pick is <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-elsewhere-express-samantha-sotto-yambao/22596206?aid=11692&ean=9780593725023&listref=book-club-picks-91552a56-f7a9-40f3-b303-66310685ac2e" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Elsewhere Express</a> by Samantha Sotto YambaoThis podcast is part of <a href="https://booksandboba.captivate.fm/potluck" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Potluck: An Asian American Podcast Collective</a>
