Dreams of Joy by Lisa See

4.0

---

Picking up where Shanghai Girls left off, this novel takes place in China after Joy, learning the true story about her parents, flees in order to find her real father. While there are too many situations that resolve themselves in the best possible manner, I still enjoyed reading the novel. It is definitely difficult to read at times but the glimpse into Communist China makes what's happening there today interesting to think about.
