The Woman Who Breathed Two Worlds | Selina Siak Chin Yoke
post image

Both of these covers remind me of #Spring🌷for today‘s #readingresolutions prompt 💐

#TheWomanWhoBreathedTwoWorlds tells the story of “Chye Hoon, a rebellious young girl, who must learn to embrace her mixed Malayan-Chinese identity as a Nyonya and her destiny as a cook, rather than pursue her 1st dream of attending school... Then she becomes afraid of losing her heritage as her children move more and more into the modernising Western world.” #TBR

4th book finished w/ less than an hour to go for #24in48readathon. It was EXCELLENT! I loved everything about this beautiful book! It was especially interesting to see so many important world events at the turn of the 20th century from a different perspective; the Great War, influenza outbreak, & modernization. Looking forward to the 2nd book in the series, which follows WWII.
