The Bonesetter's Daughter by Amy Tan

5.0

---

I absolutely adore Amy Tan and how she tackles mother daughter relationships with such honesty and truth. She intertwines the Chinese culture into the story effortlessly. I love how learning about her mother's past brings Ruth to a greater understanding and appreciation of not only her mother, but her family and herself. Amy Tan also deals with the difficulty of caring for an aging parent who is losing their mental faculties. I enjoyed this book a lot.
