Stacker compiled a list of 20 popular books written by Asian American authors, spanning various decades, genres, and subjects. These books exemplify the endless expanse of varying Asian and Asian American stories and experiences. Each book has been selected and vetted to be the best of the best, whether because they've been met with esteemed acclaim and earned awards or because they became bestsellers that sparked conversation among book clubs everywhere."
