Literally food for the soul I did not expect to enjoy this book so much. But I did. Some people did not like the author's self-absorbption. But it's HER story about emotional struggles, pain, self-love, love, happiness. Absolutely gorgeous story. I emerged from this story refreshed and hopeful.

(continue) The Scent of Sake has memorable characters. But it's the way the story is told that makes this book less than wonderful. Nonetheless, I still think that it was an enjoyable read. For a few hours, I was transported into the world of sake merchants in 19th Century Japan, following, but never rooting for its main character, Riye, quite a woman to say the least. I would be unfair to compare this book to James Clavell's Shogun or even to Pearl Buck's The Good Earth. The Scent of Sake is not a masterpiece but can be thoroughly enjoyed on a cool, rainy day -- with excellent Sake if possible. Is this helpful? ― Posted on Jul 5, 2009 \| Add your feedback

Queen of Silks	By Vanora Bennett	Finished on May 3, 2009 Review Add... My Shelf Wish List Edit / Review
Smooth as Silk. This is a book to be savoured. The Queen of Silks is definitely one of the best books I have read so far this year. The book is a page-turner. I could not wait to see what would happen with the characters but at the same time, I was reluctant to finish the book because then I would not be so enthralled anymore.
