My Reviews
As a 2nd generation American whose family came through Ellis Island it was exceptionally interesting but upsetting to learn about the Chinese trials and tribulations coming through Angel Island. The story also shows no matter what the difference in cultures families are so often the same across the world. This was one of my favorite books of the last year or two and I'm hoping for a follow-up book. The end really left me caring about these people and what happens next.
This is one of those books that you hate to see end. I wish I could have been a part of this group and I miss all the characters. I laughed and cried and related to so many issues and feelings of the "sisters". I thought about how we may be part of a group and get wrapped up in the activities of the group, or "the flavor of the week", and yet take forever to learn about who these women really are. Lastly, the book definitely got me back into journal keeping and writing again. I loved this book and look forward to reading it again!
