For those of you who love Lisa See’s books as I do, may I also suggest Gail Tsukiyama who has also written books about Japan and China. Both excellent writers and well researched. I am still catching up on some of Lisa’s older books and I love Tsukiyama’s, Women of the Silk and Language of the Silk, as well as the Samurai Garden. Both these author’s know how to present the depth of their characters and the honor of living a life of integrity. We all need that these days.

I like this book a lot. Beside the fact that “Shanghai girls” is very well written, The author Lisa See has brought about many well grounded historical facts, which means that she had made a lot of research before writing this great book.

I liked this book a lot better than the first book I ready from this author. Snow Flower and the Secret Fan, was the first book I read by Lisa See. I found myself rooting for the character who the story is focused on. I just didn’t like the way it all came together. This book is totally different. I am engrossed in all the characters and those characters that I don’t particularly like, I find myself trying to see things from their perspective. This is a great book and I also reviewed it and gave it four peaches.

“I haven’t read any Lisa See before, but I’d really like to! One of my goals for 2010 is to read more international authors, particularly Asian authors, because I tend to overlook them in my reading (which is very Western/American in its bias).”

Lisa See is actually only 1/8 Asian by the way.
