The Bonesetter's Daughter by Amy Tan

4.0

---

I read this many years ago, and decided to read it again as I am a fan of Amy Tan. The back and forth between present day and Luling's life in pre- and WWII era China kept my attention, and also helped me understand what was happening in the present day with Ruth's relationship with her mother. I thought most of the characters were well developed, although Luling's sister could have been a little less one dimensional. Glad I read this again.
