  • Interesting story about life in China, plus about how to be a good friend. Very detailed about foot binding and it was all much more gruesome than I could have imagined.

  • Snow Flower and the Secret Fan

  • A heart-wrenching story of friendship between two ladies in 19th century China. The author did a wonderful job of bringing not only her characters to life but also painting a picture of the life of a woman in traditional Chinese society.

  • This was a moving book about friendship and how different perceptions can affect it. I also learned a lot about women's lives and customs in 19th century rural China.
