          <body><![CDATA[This book is just as good.  I'm reading about the 2005 earthquake that hit Pakistan.  So many of the children who were killed were students because the earthquake occured during school hours. Almost a whole generation of literate kids were wiped away in rural areas- so sad for the hope and future of rural impoverished villages.  ]]></body>

          <body><![CDATA[Debbie,I'm about half way through this book and I agree completely with your review.  I could do with out the descriptive romance scenes which seem to happen about every other page once Claire and Jaime marry.  My sister lent me all the other books in the series but I'm not sure I'm up to reading them.  I did peek ahead (I know I'm bad) and it doesn't appear she makes it back to the 20th century, at least in this novel.  ]]></body>

The author does a respectable job, descrbing the changes in China's economy and culture as he traces the origins of his underpants. He keeps the writing entertaining by adding some humor.
