I just finished reading the Shanghai Girls, and Goodreads recomended me to follow your profile. I came here to follow the profile and I saw that Shanghai Girls has a second book! Thank You for such an amazing work you are doing in this world! Also a question - which one of your books is the favourite for yourself? :)

Thank you for your kind words. I'm so glad you enjoyed Shanghai Girls! I'm sorry to say that I don't really have an answer to your question--it's like asking which one of my sons is my favorite!

Dear Lisa, Thank you for such thoroughly researched novels. My mother, from the Lee Family in L.A. Chinatown, was SOOO excited when "On Gold Mountain" first came out. She gifted annotated copies to her 3 adult children & 3 nieces & nephews. Did you know her courtyard neighbors were the Fong See family and her sister played with Sissy? Since then, I've read 8 more.

Hi Lisa! I am loving #HistoricalFictionWeek here on Goodreads. I'm a rookie historical fiction author (two books) and I have long admired your work and career. What advice do you have for writers who are just beginning to shape their careers and hope to continue writing books for a long time?

I love your books and so appreciate the detail that goes into them. I recently finished "On Gold Mountain" (had a hard time putting it down!) How often do you base characters on members of your family and their experiences? Their history is fascinating, and I'm happy to have learned so much about the early Chinese-American experience ... thanks for sharing these courageous, strong, amazing people with us!
