You Can’t Stay Here Forever

HarperCollins, 2023

Summary: Taking the reader from San Francisco to the gilded luxury of the south of France, You Can’t Stay Here Forever is Katherine Lin’s debut novel. The story explores the slippery nature of marriage, the push and pull between friends, and the interplay of race and privilege, seen through the eyes of a young Asian American woman.

Praise: “Katherine Lin’s You Can’t Stay Here Forever is compulsively readable, so much so that it’s easy to overlook the astute intelligence that permeates every page. Reading this novel is like falling in love: delightful, poignant, and thrilling.” —Jean Kwok, New York Times bestselling author of Girl in Translation and Searching for Sylvie Lee

“This glistening debut is filled with all the wanderlust, rage, and longing of early adulthood and proves — in sinuous and Bacchic prose — that the dissolution of a friendship is a terrifying prospect.” — Courtney Maum, author of The Year of the Horses

“I was totally drawn in from the first page of You Can’t Stay Here Forever. All the contradictions of Ellie’s situation as the American child of East Asian immigrants are explored with empathy and nuance, and the book’s brilliantly observed, horribly recognizable moments are handled with the lightest of touches.” —Emily Itami, author of Fault Lines
