This book is crazy good! It sucked me in and I finished it in three days. It's a really moving story that touches on the experience of being a Chinese lesbian during the 1950s in a way that is honest, but ultimately uplifting. It's a must-read for those of you who enjoy lesbian fiction.

Did not finish book. Stopped at 47%.
I didn't find it to be very well written; its main character is okay, but none of the other characters are compelling and the book failed to get me invested in them or their world.
