Lady Tan's Circle of Women kept me engaged; I could not put it down.

This is the 6th Lisa See book that I have read. As always her writing drew me into a time period I know little about which is one of the reasons I love her writing. I especially enjoyed having her come to my book club and explain her writing process. The sheer amount of research that she puts into her work is amazing. It was so interesting how she weaved in true accounts into the fictional story such as the scene with the worm. Highly recommend and I look forward to her next book which she said is 30 years in the making.

Interesting historical fiction about women and china.

The story of a lady doctor in the early 1500's had so much influence in spite of rules and laws to keep her tucked away.
