Falling Leaves: The Memoir of an Unwanted Chinese Daughter by Adeline Yen Mah

1.0

This book was so frustrating. I feel bad for Adeline Yen Mah, but I could not get into the writing style. I've read quite a few great memoirs and this was not one. I was so confused by the skipping around of time periods. There was no flow. Chinese culture is also very frustrating and I really don't enjoy reading about it. I don't recommend this one. Several times I contemplated closing the book and never looking back, but I have only done that one other time in my life, so I trudged on.
