The Jade Peony
by Wayson Choy
Meh… had to read this book for school. There was no plot or storyline, and the ending in my opinion was awful. I liked the characters, but not how each section ended so abruptly. There was so much to work with, especially with Jung’s story that I feel wasn’t even touched on because his section was so short. I think Jung and Liang’s sections were my favourite, Liang probably because we’re both oldest daughters. Sek-Lung’s section was probably my least favourite, maybe because it wasn’t as necessarily interesting as the others, or maybe because I just really couldn’t get into it. I wouldn’t really say it’s a good book, but not the worst I’ve ever read.
