A review by paigewetzel
The Hundred Secret Senses by Amy Tan

4.0

This book immediately intrigued me and gave me a glimpse into the ways our cultures can clash or morph together. I really appreciate the way Tan raises questions without providing definitive answers. So many questions about past, present, future, family, culture, and self cannot be answered so simply. I enjoyed the characters built in Tan's world though I found the ending a bit disappointing, perhaps because it felt unexpected. After fantastic stories and imaginings the ending felt abrupt. But I can still appreciate the world Tan crafted and the questions we are left to inwardly examine as a result.
