This book made me feel so many emotions and especially because it is real, it added a whole other level. Adeline shared her amazing story and i definitely recommend.

This is the personal story of Adeline Yen Mah, an unwanted Chinese daughter.
I am not sure of the rating of this book. I am between 3 and 4 stars. I have a feeling that it would be a better book, it would be an excellent book, if the story was not written with such bitterness from the part of the writer. I really liked the photographs of Adeline and her family, as they were a strong reminder of the fact that this is the actual story of Yen family and that these people have lived through the troubled times of China.
The story was captivating and I think that I would like to read another book of Adeline.
