Michelle Quach is a graphic designer and writer living in Los Angeles. She's Chinese Vietnamese American and a graduate of Harvard University, where she studied history and literature. She loves rom-coms, characters who don't always do the right thing, and any dog that kind of looks like her dog. Not Here To Be Liked is her first novel.
Michelle Quach's effortlessly flowing prose is steeped in love and kindness. Readers will rejoice as they witness Francine and Ollie movingly come to accept their families, each other, and most important, themselves. Totally in love with this novel. * Loan Le, author of A Pho Love Story * Alternately hilarious and heartbreaking, this story highlights the interweaving of family and tradition and how this impacts ways love is demonstrated. Insightful and emotionally resonant. * Kirkus * Adorable! Love how Ollie and Francine bring out the best sides to each other and the slow burn is one hundred percent swoon worthy. * Abiola Bello, author of Love in Winter Wonderland *
