China DollsChina Dolls by Lisa See
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Another book club book that I am so glad I read. The story, though not a mystery, is a real page turner. I could not wait to see what became of our characters. Lisa See is brilliant and weaves three simple stories with just enough detail to keep you interested. The story moves quickly through a period of history that I thought I knew. It was a different perspective that I appreciated.
