A review by sssnoo
The Palest Ink by Kay Bratt

3.0

I had high expectations for this book. I think if a reader has not been exposed to much history of Mao’s Cultural Revolution the book would be much more engaging. As I know the basics of this period and what happened, the story was very predictable and formuleic. It wasn’t bad, and I enjoyed the book, it just didn’t Wow me relative to the average 4.3 stars.
