Found it hard to read
I really enjoyed this book.
Great story that intertwine over time. Disappointed with ending.
Spellbinding characters who survived the struggles and poverty of wartime Eastern Europe. Outside the box for me but captivating
Well written, intriguing tale of a young Chinese girl’s coming to understand herself as a powerful healer.
Atmospheric recollections providing insight on historic (contemporaneous) events.
A little slow but a great read.
Supernatural and reality transformations difficult to read if not paying close attention and sometimes not comprehended if you are not used to this sort of analogy type writing. Overalll however, the story is interesting in itself
