"Double Take is a rare book that puts equal weight on love in all of its forms—not just romantic, but between friends, parents, and of course, sisters. Tashie Bhuiyan not only takes us through the delightful adventures of pop stars and glassblowers in alternate universes, but she is also unafraid to dive into the nuances of making art, practicing religion, and confronting intergenerational trauma. A heartwarming love letter to art and sisterhood." —Allison King, author of The Phoenix Pencil Company

“A character study at its most heartfelt. Double Take peers into the inner lives of two sisters with stunning precision, asking questions of love, longing, and acceptance—all in the scope of an innately personal multiverse.” — Chloe Gong, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of Immortal Longings

“An extraordinary and moving tale, Double Take is an evocative meditation on the fearless act of becoming, the infinite forms of possibilities that life can take on, and the myriad forms of love - chosen, unconditional, unwavering love — that can span universes. It was my privilege to witness Astoria and Grace’s story through their joy, their formation, and their emotionally layered connection. The book utterly entranced me and moved me to tears.” — Christina Li, award-winning author of The Manor of Dreams 

“Tashie Bhuiyan proves there is no genre or age category she can’t handle with humor and heart. This stunning, emotional speculative debut takes everything I love about her voice—the complicated familial relationships, the whip-smart banter, the memorable characters—and elevates it all to new heights. Don’t miss this gorgeous novel.”
— Kamilah Cole, USA Today and national bestselling author of An Arcane Inheritance

“Double Take took me by surprise in the best way. What starts as a smart and incredibly fun romp through the multiverse, quietly turns into a heartfelt tale of two unforgettable characters challenging their beliefs on love and life. I loved watching them find their way back to each other and their place in the world. I never wanted it to end.” — Natalie Sue, bestselling author of I Hope This Finds You Well
