kbkittyb 's review for:
Chinese Cinderella: The True Story of an Unwanted Daughter
by Adeline Yen Mah
*2.5*
I didn't really enjoy this one. I truly believe she had a rough life but she just comes across as really whiny and vengeful against her family.
There is nothing that really stood out for me...it was very much a case of cruelty at home, love of school, more cruelty, boarding school, different boarding school, another boarding school, then success. Fickle friends and family being very central to the story.
I did, however, enjoy learning about Chinese history and culture.
It was nice and quick but it's not something that will stick with me. Not terrible but not great.
