“I'm really happy with the way the series was wrapped up. There were a few sections of this book that could have been edited down because I found myself wanting to skim. I still really enjoyed it as a guilty pleasure, and I'm sad that the series is over.”
“Excellent, as I expected from Lisa See. I didn't like it quite as much as Snow Flower and the Secret Fan, but I enjoyed it quite a bit. Very well researched.”
“Even better than her debut novel!”
“Not her best.”
“Nice light read. Formulaic and predictable but fun to read.”
“I would have liked a little more ghost story and a little less love story.”
“Quick read, good writing, but found myself waiting for the real action to begin throughout the whole book.”
“The writing was wonderful, but there were only one or two likable characters in the novel. The narrator, Truly, was hard to sympathize with at times.”
“Fun escapist fiction.”
“Great spy novel. Better than the excellent first in the Gabriel Allon series.”
