Dreams of Joy by Lisa See
5.0

Really enjoyable read. Had read Snow Flower/Fan a couple of years back and decided to get this one from the library for my Kindle (love that option now!)
Great characters that were introduced in Shanghai Girls (now on my "to read" list) and a fascinating story of life in Communist China under Mao when the Great Leap Forward created poverty and starvation in the rural areas of China. Stayed up late a couple of nights unable to put it down. Highly recommend.
