I loved The Good Earth, and I was really excited to read the next book in the series for #FoodAndLit #China

I didn‘t love it though. Oh well. I might try the third one because I‘ve heard that‘s better, but this one was way too long and didn‘t have the storytelling magic the first one had.

Texreader Glad I‘ve made the decision to stop after book 1 1y
Catsandbooks Too bad it wasn't as good 1y

Today‘s adventure in Chinese tea. #FoodAndLit #China

Bookwormjillk Update- I love this! Tastes just like when I used to go out for Chinese Food with my Grandmother. 1y
DivineDiana This is fantastic! My sisters and I were just talking about the tea that we would have in Chinese restaurants! Where did you find this tea? 1y
Bookwormjillk @DivineDiana Amazon! It took a month to get here and looked like a truck had backed over it but the taste is right! 1y
DivineDiana Thank you! 🫖 1y
Catsandbooks That's awesome! 🍵🇨🇳 1y

I have too many choices for #China for #foodandlit this month, all in my kindle library. I‘ll start with the tagged book and hope I might get to one or two more. Any favorites here?

WorldsOkayestStepMom I loved The Good Earth! And I have A Single Swallow on my Kindle tbr too. 1y
Tamra The Good Earth was a wonderful reading experience - I think I‘ve read it twice. 1y
Amiable I second @WorldsOkayestStepMom -I too loved “The Good Earth” 1y
Texreader @WorldsOkayestStepMom @Tamra @Amiable Y‘all have convinced me to read The Good Earth first. So I‘ve bought the audiobook to read when I finish the one I‘m listening to now. Thanks for the recommendation!! 1y

A quite good Second World War story from Pear S. Buck. But again, somehow I could not feel the deepness of the situation.

Pearl S. Buck again. It was a really really good story about a woman who try to balance between old Chinese tradition and the West world.

This was again an amazing Pearl S. Buck novel. It is so sad the people barely know her.
This time based on true historic events. However Cixi is not a likebale character at all she is very clever and strong. I loved it.

I bought every Pearl S. Buck book in the second hand bookshop I could. I am so happy with them! Last year this writer became one of favourites and my goal is to read every book which was publushed on my language 🥰🥰🥰🥰

I cannot be disoppointed when I am reading a Pearl S. Buck novel. This story happenning in Communist China (and the USA) in a disintegrating Chines family. I felt all of their problems and doubts in the system however I don't think it was deep enough.
