After reading Snow's "Snow Flower and the Secret Fan" (which is INCREDIBLE, by the way), I couldn't wait for the release of this, her latest book. To say I was bitterly disappointed is putting it mildly. I kept waiting and waiting to "get into" the book--to become somehow attached to any of the characters, to care whether or not they were living or dead or living in another state, and I just could not connect with any of it! I would HIGHLY recommend reading Snow Flower and the Secret Fan and I cannot think of anyone that I could recommend Peony in Love to--it was just awful. I finished it and felt as though I had wasted my time and money and I honestly cannot remember the last time I read I book I enjoyed less. Wah!
