Nghi Vo’s SIREN QUEEN, an enthralling exploration of an outsider achieving stardom on her own terms in a fantastical Hollywood where the monsters are real, has received three starred reviews!
“Luli is a compelling character both on and off the screen in this story that takes the mythmaking of Hollywood and transforms it and her into something transcendent. Highly recommended.”–Library Journal, starred review
“Vo (THE CHOSEN AND THE BEAUTIFUL, 2021) turns Hollywood into a fairyland—the kind from the old stories, sharp and dangerous—and laces the sparkling silver romance of the movies with a dark, exploitative, hungry greed…Pair that vivid world with the stubborn, passionate Luli and a pace that turns from slow and delightfully sexy to vast and terrifying with the turn of a page and you have the brilliantly searing SIREN QUEEN.”–Booklist, starred review
“Vo’s hypnotic prose blends metaphor with magic so seamlessly that reality itself becomes slippery. Her dazzling voice, evocative scene setting, and ambitious protagonist make this a knockout.”–Publishers Weekly, starred review
