The Crazed (Vintage International)

by Ha Jin

“Not as good as I expected. I'd hoped for more about the Tienanmen Square protests. Instead I got a lot of complaints about higher education in China.”

Fodor's China, 5th Edition (Fodor's Gold Guides)

by Fodor's
- Rated 3 stars
“Not their best work. I usually like Fodors books for their starred sights and recommendations and for their well written essays. This is just scratches the surface of China and the essays are mediocre.

Get Lonely Planet or maybe Rough Guide. ”

Speaking of Faith

by Krista Tippett
- Rated 3 stars
“It's the story of Tippet's journey to start her radio program and her faith journey. It's a breezy read with many good quotations and observations. I remember more about her journey than any particular observation on faith.”
