This is the best Amy Tan book I have read so far. Amy Tan's writing is, as always, impecable and readable. There were moments where I hated the villian in this story so much I literally wanted to throw the book across the room .... but I couldn't bear to part with the book until I found out how the main character got away! I ended up getting so caught up in the story that I was literally crying at some points (which rarely happens), and laughing at others. It's a book about strong women in their relationships with each other. This book is a keeper for me.
