I really enjoyed this book and learned a lot about the Akha people and pu’er.

I was surprised that the ending was entirely in Haley’s voice when most of the story is Li-yan’s. The title does refer to Haley, but I felt like I went on a crazy and harrowing journey with Li-yan and wanted her perspective through the end.
