Amanda Koe hello dear librarian, the description of my book has been edited in the official copy that is going to print, but i was unable to edit the description on my bookpage because i am not a librarian. could you kindly make the change?

bookpage: (https://www.goodreads.com/book/199531653)

i'm appending the google books page and the amazon kindle page that has the updated official description:

https://books.google.com.sg/books/abo...

https://www.amazon.com/Sister-Snake-A...

if easier, i'm pasting the full description here as well:

Sisterhood is difficult for Su and Emerald. Su leads a sheltered, moneyed life as the picture-perfect wife of a conservative politician in Singapore. Emerald is a nihilistic sugar baby in New York, living from whim to whim and using her charms to make ends meet. But they share a secret: once, they were snakes, basking under a full moon in Tang dynasty China.

A thousand years later, their mysterious history is the only thing still binding them together. When Emerald experiences a violent encounter in Central Park and Su boards the next flight to New York, the two reach a tenuous reconciliation for the first time in decades. Su convinces Emerald to move to Singapore so she can keep an eye on her—but she soon begins to worry that Emerald’s irrepressible behavior will out them both, in a sparkling, affluent city where everything runs like clockwork and any deviation from the norm is automatically suspect.

Razor-sharp, hilarious, and raw in emotion, Sister Snake explores chosen family, queerness, passing, and the struggle against conformity. Reimagining the Chinese folktale “The Legend of the White Snake,” this is a novel about being seen for who you are—and, ultimately, how to live free.
