Finally have time to read an #authoramonth #lisasee selection!
Found on my daughter s dusty bookshelves. Read a few pages before passing it on. . . Then couldn t pass it on. Feudal China cultural backdrop to lifelong female friendship. The invention of Nu Shu writing. #China #backlist #historical fiction #lisasee #nushuwriting
One of my favorite books 📚
I hope everyone has had a great weekend! I‘ve been working and trying to wrap my head around things... just soooo much going on... sending love to everyone ❤️ 🌎

Surprised to discover this is the only title I've read by See. Thought I would have read more since I absolutely loved this book.
Day 3 of #20series20days is this page-turning duology from #LisaSee about two sisters forced to leave their comfortable life in Shanghai for a different life in the US on the eve of WWII. Each book stands alone, but I think they work best if you jump right into book two after book one. Without spoiling, I think when you finish book one you will WANT to jump right into book two! #Top20series #AugustAuthors #seewhatididthere
I have to admit that I am not a fan of Lisa See's. I will say she is an excellent researcher, and she is able to really get into Chinese history like few others can. If you are interested in her here is a link to the PRH site that is all about her work:
