Let the games begin!
Today marks the opening ceremonies of the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. Sadly, I'm not in China to enjoy the games so I'll be wallowing in self-pity with Shelfari's Top 10 "China" tagged books*.
- Snow Flowers and the Secret Fan by Lisa See
- The Good Earth by Pearl S. Buck
- Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress by Dai Sijie
- The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan
- Wild Swans: Three Daughters of China by Jung Chang
- The Bonesetter's Daughter by Amy Tan
- The Kitchen God's Wife by Amy Tan
- Waiting by Ha Jin
- The Hundred Secret Senses by Amy Tan
- The Painted Veil by W. Somerset Maugham
Looks like there are some serious Amy Tan fans on Shelfari!
Happy Reading (and if you're watching the Olympics--enjoy!),
Amanda
*Okay, so I won't get through ALL of the Top 10 books this weekend...I'm not indulging in that much self-pity. *grin*
