Letter from Peking: A Novel | Pearl S. Bück

Ohh I just found the circle in the stickers, yay!!! Plus, this is on sale on kindle for 1.99 and apparently hard to find in paperback. (The one on Amazon was 26 dollars). I've never read this author before so I though I would try this one.

ā€My Dear Wife: First before I say what must be said, let me tell you that I love only you.ā€¯
If you enjoy Celeste Ng‘s books, this is for you. Elizabeth and her husband, Gerald (who is half American and half Chinese), have had a happy marriage in Peking. But when war erupts in China, she is forced to return to her family home in Vermont with her son, leaving Gerald behind. Quite a study in race, belonging and culture. š’š’š’š’

I own about 2,500 Kindle books and since September of last year I've been trying to make a dent in them by reading a few each month. It gets overwhelming so I make a #TBR list each month to see what I'm in the mood for. This month's list is about 60 books long! My moods are all over the place! Here's the top most half. #TBRTuesday

KerriNTurner The War That Saved My Life is a wonderful book! 8y

Reese_Pearly.Pages Impressive eBook library. Mine is rapidly growing as well. š… Not quite in the thousands yet! 8y

L_auren Read Molokai NOW š¤“ 8y

SarahSaysRead Oooo Molokai is great! 8y

batsy That's an interesting list, I've had my eye on Renata Adler and Sara Baume 8y

EvieBee @saresmoore That's on good recommendation then! 8y

EvieBee @BooksForEmpathy @L_auren @SarahSaysRead That's three for Moloka'i! Hmmm... 8y

EvieBee @LeahBergen I remember when it came out! So much positive buzz. 8y

EvieBee @KerriNTurner I have really been meaning to read it since it came out. I preordered it. I should just do it! 8y

EvieBee @Reese_Pearly.Pages Thank you! I tell you it's the unadvertised deals. I used to check my Amazon wishlist 3-5 times a day for markdowns. Sometimes some books would only be 1.99 for an hour or so. So crazy! (edited) 8y

EvieBee @batsy Thank you! Speedboat has been on my list forever! I should get to that sooner than later. 8y
