I read this for the April "Flower" theme in my online book club, The Reading Cove. I'd had it in my TBR pile for a while, but the theme pushed it to the top.

I really enjoyed this story! While featuring a vastly different time and culture than my own, it actually transported me to China in the 1800's, and right into the lives of Lily and Snow Flower. Their friendship had it all. Deep, inexplicable love...and the harsh complexities of judgement, misunderstanding, bitterness and pain. I even cried at the end. I felt Lily's pain as realization dawned.

SNOW FLOWER AND THE SECRET FAN was a wonderful story about love, friendship and the complexity of female emotion. I highly recommend it!
