This collection of short stories perfectly rounds out this duology. All the “I wish I knew happened” moments I had while reading the first two books as cured by reading this one. Not only were the stories beautifully written, per usual for Ms. Tan. But I also love how they were organized in a kind of prequel to sequel order and seemed to flow so well even though they picked up during different time periods. The illustrations were beautiful and matched so well to the imagery that Ms. Tan masterfully wrote. Story to put this duology to bed.
