For some strange reason, I thought this was a children's book. It's not. That would be a terrible mistake; only a very mature, clear-eyed child should read it. Very good; beautifully written; heart-rending subject matter. (less)

Well written but the plot a little too soap operatic for my liking. Some interesting, nit fully developed, themes about women's role in modern India and the difficulty treading outside traditional roles imposes, and the difficulty living inside traditional roles, too. Suffered, perhaps, from trying to be too many different types of stories: raunchy romance? Melodrama? Serious feminist consideration? Touched on the same themes as Margaret Atwood's Cat Eye. (less)

Not as engaging as Concise Dictionary, which I devoured in a sitting. This took me a while to get into and I only finished it because I needed to return it to the library and had already renewed it three times. Xiaoluo Guo is certainly very original in her story telling style, and I enjoyed the format, though I found it too easy to step away from. The story itself is sweet, poignant and blackly funny. Very understated.(less)
