'The Entire Staff Picks Wall Was Dedicated to My Book'
"I worked at an independent bookstore, Literati, in downtown Ann Arbor for four years, and it was a big reason I decided to live in Ann Arbor long-term. It put me in touch with so many readers in my town and pushed me to read widely so that I could give them the best recommendations in any genre.
"At Literati, we have a staff picks wall, and my best memory is actually when my first book (Number One Chinese Restaurant) came out. The entire staff picks wall was dedicated to my book! It was the most meaningful gift to have had so many of my co-workers read my book and be excited to share it with our readers."
--Lillian Li, author of Bad Asians, in a q&a with the Orange County Register
