"A beautifully crafted novel about race, music, and social media...in this timely novel, Shraya speaks to a modern audience with bold cultural insight, confronting the difficulties of being a brown artist and the drastic impact social media can have on pop culture."
Booklist 

"Biting and beautiful."
Jonny Sun, author of everyone’s a alien when ur a alien too

"So engaging. I can't think of anything I've read that has captured Twitter culture so well. There is something that really touches on the absurdity and pressure of social media and art. I can't put it down."
Sara Quinn, of Tegan and Sara

"It is clear that Shraya is pouring everything she's learned from years of writing and making music into a text that combines rhythm and deft technique in bitingly original ways. It is equally clear in The Subtweet that Shraya is using the vehicle of fiction to hash out many of the valid frustrations she's accumulated over years of navigating the Canadian culture scene...Shraya skilfully shows this complexity by depicting characters who are frequently ridiculous, petty, and even malicious, while simultaneoulsy pushing readers to understand the underlying systemic factors driving their frustrating actions."
Quill & Quire

"Vivek Shraya's The Subtweet is a sharp, encompassing story...A piercing satire played out against diverse creative energies, The Subtweet is affecting, unnerving, empowering, and often truly LOL."
