Lesliereadsalot Got this one on my shelf. Waiting for your review! 2d
TheSpineView @Lesliereadsalot It was really good. Liked the plot and the prose was good. However, the characters are what really pulled me in. 2d

Li-yan is part of the Ahka minority in China, they live in the mountains, harvesting tea and following their old traditions. As Li-yan grows up she ventures into the outside world,just as the outside world enters her village.

The theme sounded a bit heavy so I kept posponing starting the book but it turned out to be one of my favourite of the year.I loved it from the first page,the descriptions of the scenery left such beautiful vivid pictures⬇️

nanuska_153 the different traditions of this remote tribe and how they were impacted by Chinese politics, as well as the tea farming and processing details were very interesting without ever feeling heavy; the treatment of babies and international adoptions, the themes of motherhood and identity made the book heartbreaking at times, but it mostly has the feeling of a warm cozy cup of tea and blanket. ⬇️ 3w
nanuska_153 Probably no need for this content warning if you know anything about China, but there's infanticide in the story 3w
Prairiegirl_reading I couldn‘t get past the infanticide and I wish I had been warned. It happens very early on but it upset me so much that I just took the book to the little free library because I couldn‘t even look at it. So trigger warnings are helpful. 3w
nanuska_153 @Prairiegirl_reading it is a horrific part. It's not the first time that I read the same argument made about twins, it was something that was done in different parts of the world; and it is also horrible for Lin-yan and becomes a turning point,so although it was difficult to read I didn't feel it was gratuitous and I appreciated it in that context. But we all have things that we can't handle being exposed to and trigger warnings are essential. 2w

After reading “My Secret Sister,” by Helen Edwards and Jenny Lee Smith, I would recommend reading “Secret Daughter” by Shilpi Somaya Gowda or “Please Adopt Me” by Lynne Pardoe. These books give the reader the same feeling. Jenny had been wealthy growing up, while Helen, her long lost twin was poor, abused and uncared for. Toward the second half of this novel, Jenny‘s father passed away. That extremely affected her life because he was a great

Later on, her mother passed away and she went on to find her biological family. When she finds Mercia‘s address she wants nothing to do with her. When Jenny finally tracks down her sister she, Helen is devastated. The two now feel complete together. The two 1mo

Beautiful novel in verse about adoption, family, friendship, and love in all forms. Rynn is having conflicts with her adoptive mom and struggles with not knowing about her birth mom and potential siblings…
