Listen to what I have to say, this book is a long agonizing book to read. Maybe if it wasn’t forced upon me it would be better. If Jung Chang made it about 300 pages less then it would be a great book.

I have this book on my list to read and am really looking forward to it. I don’t know anything really about Chinese history so should be an interesting eye-opener.

Sorry, got my books mixed up. I was talking about Snowflower, but I’m looking forward to reading Swans soon.

I enjoyed this book as well although I always thought it was a historical fiction. Either way, it was a compelling story.

I love history when it is presented this way. I've always felt that history was more about how people's lives were affected by their rulers than just names, dates, and events that occurred.

I completely agree!! This book sounds awesome. Thanks for the review. I'll look this one up.
