The Phoenix Crown
by Janie Chang, Kate Quinn
I always enjoy Kate Quinn's novels, and I enjoy the ones she co-writes even more. This story takes place around the 1906 earthquake in San Francisco. The main characters Suling, from Chinatown, and Gemma, an opera singer, are interwoven by their relationships with a rich and powerful man. Other true historical characters are mixed in, which led me to search who was real and who was fiction. I did have to suspend disbelief quite a bit for this story, but it was entertaining.
