This is most interesting because I think she's the first Chinese writer of English to be nominated for a Booker... am I correct? Well, maybe not. But the subject matter and the setting really piqued my curiosity.Artihttp://rippleeffects.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160223532207347025.post-5703882574701055112012-10-03T13:24:10.693-04:002012-10-03T13:24:10.693-04:00Di!

So far,...Stefanie, I am now reading A Gift Of Rain. So far, love it. I made the mistake of reading a review in The Guardian...the only one that panned the book. Now, every time he uses an analogy that "such and such is like this and that..." I get steamed at that critic because what I would never have noticed I now do...and it affects my enjoyment - like the tiniest grease spot on a silk blouse that you wouldn't have noticed until someone points it out to you and then its like a beacon. But I am truly enjoying it nevertheless. And you're 25 on the list? Wow. I've moved up to #6 for Bring Up The Bodies.Gradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17526750467742207099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4160223532207347025.post-65803976143921883142012-09-17T14:09:54.590-04:002012-09-17T14:09:54.590-04:00I put myself on the library hold queue for this on...I put myself on the library hold queue for this one after your goodreads recommendation.
