I am a fan of Lisa See and this is the fifth book of hers that I have read. She communicates well through her characters and is always a learning experience. Happy Reading!

My mom recommended this book to me to read at the beach. I read it in two days!! Great story!! I felt this book in my soul... a must read!

It was a privilege to read such a well written, thoroughly researched and achingly beautiful story. This story will stay with me for a long time.

Absolutely amazing book filled with so much detail about Chinese life

Fascinating book....had me thinking about the story and culture for weeks after I had finished reading the book! The storyline is very engaging, while providing a very interesting historical perspective. A great historical fiction piece.

I read this book in two days! I just couldn't stop reading it. It shows great power and very strong emotion among women who lived extremely male-dominated lives.

A friend recommended this book to me and I loved it. A beautiful story of friendship, also very enlightening on a culture I knew nothing of.

Beautifully written. Each page paints a picture and draws you into each character.

wonderful!

I learned so much from this book from Chinese history, to relationships between girls. It would be easy for women in all aspects of life to relate to and enjoy this story.
