Shanghai Girls
by Lisa See
Wow, wow, WOW! Great book. One of those books I couldn't bear to put down, and would pick up my phone to read a page or two on my Kindle app whenever I could. I don't know much about Chinese history, but this definitely made me want to learn more - assuming it's used as the backdrop for a compelling story, as this is. It's not just a strong description of Shanghai, but also of what it was like to come to California, go through the west coast version of Ellis Island (sort of), and then live in Chinatown in Los Angeles. This is a really good book. It reads great.
