Jessica\u2019s Review:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The female members of a family are born with a birthmark. It links them together so that they can never be parted from one another. It is a source of pride to some and shame to others. Through a changing country and political climate, this family carries burdens of the past through generations. Does love always end in sorrow?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This book was so beautiful. I was captivated from the first page. The beautiful writing pulled me in initially, but the story captured me soon after. Experiencing the Chinese Revolution from the perspective of a child and young woman was so interesting. Experiencing the loss of Yunhong\u2019s innocence to the world was heartbreaking. You could really see how the hurt of mother transferred to daughter throughout the family line: in Yuexin\u2019s treatment of her marriage and how it affected Hongxing and Yonghong, in Yonghong\u2019s attitude toward love and how Emily was affected, and in how a family that was once so close could be irrevocably changed by a decision. This is a book I will be thinking about for a while. I recommend this book to anyone looking to branch out of their usual genres. It is a great book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
