Shanghai Girls

Author: Lisa See
Stars: 4
Review by: Lynne T.

I love Lisa See and the intricacy of her family relationship portrayals. This book was set in a fascinating time in history and I learned things I hadn't known, like how they held new Chinese immigrants in retention centers in CA. The sisters' relationship is at the center of the book, and it's complicated, fascinating, loyal, brutal, and compelling.
