Shanghai Girls

By Lisa See

This one was excellent. I liked See's first book Snow Flower and the Secret Fan but this one is much better. It led to a field trip with the boys and my parents to Angel Island, which was especially interesting after having read this story. I highly recommend doing both if you are in the San Francisco area.

I write short, pithy, book recommendations for family and friends. My best life is comprised of my husband, my boys, my books, a quiet place, a comfortable chair, a cocktail on my side table, and a Vizsla in my lap.
