Our Internet secrets: revisiting adolescence ft. Cynthia So

But Where Are You From?

Happy Pride Month! Kai (she/her) and Karlie (she/her) talk with the wonderful Cynthia So (they/them), author of the new book ‘If You Still Recognise Me’ (out 9 June in the UK). Together they discuss the impact of YA (Young Adult) books on teenagers and adults alike, discovering queer culture in Hong Kong, the Canto in Cynthia's book, writing about different types of love and family dynamics, and the joys of fanfiction and Tumblr back in the noughties and 2010s.
