My heart is full and heavy at the same time. This was such a beautiful book. I had so many mixed emotions while listening to it. This is both thought-provoking and educational. It is the second book I've read about Chinese culture, and each time, I'm in awe. The most beautiful part of the book for me is the relationship between a mother and a daughter. I tried my very best not to cry at the end. What a wonderful ending! And the author's note just topped it all off!
