I have read Snow Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See. It's the best book I've read about China. Loved the friendship between the two women. But that's not half of the story. Love it.
Sounds like a great read.

Hi Tea!
This was one of my all time favorite books too! The friendship and the way Lisa See depicted it was with such depth and feeling.
Hi Page,
This is definitely a wonderful read. I would recommend this to any woman who has ever had a close friendship or a woman who has a close sister.
I really enjoyed reading Lisa See's historical fiction novels.
