A review by wintersavenger
The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan
4.0
I began this book not quite knowing what to expect. Being from a tiny, extremely religious island in the North of Scotland, Chinese culture and history is not something that I've ever really been able to explore outside books I've recently picked up through recommendations and book clubs.
The history, the information alone was fascinating enough for me to explore. The relationships, both strained and strengthened between mothers and daughters provided an interesting tale that I will admit, did manage to get me to tear up at the end after June makes a connection to her mother's past that the mother herself had always dreamed of.
