Karschtl's review
The Kitchen God's Wife by Amy Tan
I enjoyed this book very much! One of the rare cases where I gave the full 10 stars at Bookcrossing. Here with only 5 stars I give them a little tiny bit more often.
Anyway, very well written, easy to read (because of the 'simple' language Winnie uses) and an absolutely interesting tale. Shocking at times and I felt sorry for Winnie more than once. I was glad that I knew from the beginning that at some point her life changed for the better.
Bought my own copy later on, after this one here had travelled on with BC. That's how much I liked it! Haven't read the "Joy Luck Club" yet, but already own the book and have seen the movie.
