I just finished Snow Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See. I know I haven't read this book before, but half way through it started sounding really familiar. I've either seen part of the movie or read a book that was similar. Anyway, I thought this was a sad and beautiful story of friendship. I can't even imagine what it would have been like to be a woman in China during the foot binding/women are worthless time period. How sad to not be able to love a daughter as much as a son and to not even know your husband and possibly never see your family again. So many sad parts in this book, but I was pleasantly surprised in the ending.
Now reading: squirrel seeks chipmunk by David Sedaris
