A New York Times Bestseller! Don't chase fate. Let fate chase you.
'Clever, creative, and exquisitely written' Stephanie Garber For
generations, deadly storms have ravaged Mina's homeland. Her people
believe the Sea God, once their protector, now curse them with
death and despair. To appease him, each year a maiden is thrown
into the sea, in the hopes that one day the 'true bride' will be
chosen and end the suffering. Many believe Shim Cheong - Mina's
brother's beloved - to be the legendary true bride. But on the
night Cheong is sacrificed, Mina's brother follows her, even
knowing that to interfere is a death sentence. To save her brother,
Mina throws herself into the water in Cheong's stead. Swept away to
the Spirit Realm, a magical city of lesser gods and mythical
beasts, Mina finds the Sea God, trapped in an enchanted sleep. With
the help of a mysterious young man and a motley crew of demons,
gods and spirits, Mina sets out to wake him and bring an end to the
storms once and for all. But she doesn't have much time: a human
cannot live long in the land of the spirits. And there are those
who would do anything to keep the Sea God from waking . . . The
Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea is a magical feminist retelling of a
classic Korean legend, perfect for fans of Uprooted and Miyazaki's
Spirited Away. 'A beautiful, mesmerizing retelling' Elizabeth Lim,
New York Times bestselling author of Six Crimson Cranes 'A true
jewel of a story' Janella Angeles, bestselling author of Where
Dreams Descend

New York Times bestselling author Axie
Oh's ASAP is the much anticipated companion novel to
beloved romance XOXO, following fan favorites Sori, the
wealthy daughter of a K-pop company owner, and Nathaniel, her K-pop
star ex-boyfriend, in a swoon-worthy second chance love story. Sori
has worked her whole life to become a K-pop idol, until she
realizes she doesn’t want a life forever in the spotlight. But
that’s not actually up to Sori—she’s caught between her
exacting mother’s entertainment company and her father’s
presidential aspirations. And as the pressure to keep her flawless
public image grows, the last person she should be thinking about is
her ex-boyfriend. Nathaniel is off limits—she knows this. A
member of one of the biggest K-pop bands in the world and forbidden
from dating, he isn’t any more of an option now than he was two
years ago. Still, she can’t forget that their whirlwind romance
was the last time she remembers being really happy. Or that his
family welcomed her into their home when she needed it most. . . .
So when Nathaniel finds himself rocked by scandal, Sori offers him
a hideaway with her. And back in close quarters, it’s hard to
deny their old feelings. But when Sori gets an opportunity to break
free from her parent’s expectations, she will have to decide: Is
her future worth sacrificing for a second chance at love?

Jenny's never had much time for boys, K-pop, or really anything
besides her dream of being a professional cellist. But when she
finds herself falling for a K-pop idol, she has to decide whether
their love is worth the risk. A modern forbidden romance wrapped in
the glamorous and exclusive world of K-pop, XOXO is perfect for
fans of Jenny Han and Maurene Goo. Jenny didn't get to be an
award-winning, classically trained cellist without choosing
practice over fun. That is, until the night she meets Jaewoo.
Mysterious, handsome, and just a little bit tormented, Jaewoo is
exactly the kind of distraction Jenny would normally avoid. And
yet, she finds herself pulled into spending an unforgettable
evening wandering Los Angeles with him on the night before his
flight home to South Korea. With Jaewoo an ocean away, there's no
use in dreaming of what could have been. But when Jenny and her
mother move to Seoul to take care of her ailing grandmother, who
does she meet at the elite arts academy she's just been accepted
to? Jaewoo. Finding the dreamy stranger who swept you off your feet
in your homeroom is one thing, but Jaewoo isn't just any student.
Turns out, Jaewoo is a member of one of the biggest K-pop bands in
the world. And like most K-pop idols, Jaewoo is strictly forbidden
from dating anyone. When a relationship means not only jeopardizing
her place at her dream music school but also endangering everything
Jaewoo's worked for, Jenny has to decide once and for all just how
much she's willing to risk for love. XOXO is a new romance that
proves chasing your dreams doesn't have to mean sacrificing your
heart, from acclaimed author Axie Oh. Indigo Best Teen Books of
2021
