The Comeback - Best of 2022

I’m thrilled that The Comeback was chosen as one of the Best of 2022 by Audible! You can find a full list of the amazing audiobooks on this list here.

"Phillipa Soo of Hamilton fame once again lends her voice to a funny, insightful, and deliciously romantic novel from Lily Chu. The Comeback follows an ambitious lawyer who unwittingly falls in love with a member of a popular K-pop band—and must decide what she’s willing to risk for her happiness once their relationship goes viral and she experiences the darker side of his fan base. Chu delivers a beautiful story that weaves together complex issues of mental health, fame, cultural expectations, and anti-Asian racism while also making you swoon and laugh." —Margaret H.
