February Flowers
February Flowers | Fan Wu
10 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
Set in modern China, February Flowers tells the stories of two young womens journeys to self-discovery and reconciliation with the past. Seventeen-year-old Ming and twenty-four-year-old Yan have very little in common other than studying in the same college. Ming, idealistic and preoccupied, lives in a world of books, music, and imagination. Yan, by contrast, is sexy, cynical, and wild, with no sense of home. Yet when the two meet, they soon become best friends. Their friendship is brief, almost accidental, but intense, and it changes Mings world forever. Insightful, sophisticated, and rich with complex characters, February Flowers captures a society torn between tradition and modernity, dogma and freedom. It is a meditation on friendship, family, love, loss and redemption, and how a background shapes a life. From the Hardcover edition.

With February quickly approaching, here's the list of prompts for #feistyfeb again. Unfortunately I forgot that February is also Black History Month otherwise I would've included a prompt for it. Instead I encourage all of you to post your reads for #BlackHistoryMonth throughout Feb. Looking forward to your posts!

BooksForYears Thank you so much for creating these fun prompts every month! I always look forward to them, and my fellow Littens' posts. 8y
LeeRHarry Thanks again! Such fun! 😊 8y
ValerieAndBooks I hope I have time to do some of these! The last couple months have been hard for me to do much but I've enjoyed seeing everyone's posts! 8y
