The Joy Luck Club
After not reading a book in a couple years I decide to read The Joy Luck Club.
And what a good decision that was. An amazing book. I couldn't put it down for days. Yes it takes me that long to read a 288 page book. I often have to reread sentences/paragraphs or I won't remember a word of it.
An inspiring book about 4 Chinese women and their 4 Chinese-American daughters, that truly pulls you into it's story.
I'm going to rent the movie, hopefully tonight, though I know it's not as good as the book.
I've seen it a few times when I was younger, but I only remember certain bits and pieces of the movie. Funny thing is the parts I remember the most in the movie are parts that didn't actually happen in the book, or that happened differently. A book full of drama, romance, disappointment and tragedy, and yet the film makers still found it necessary to add to the movie. Ridiculous, but I'm still eager to watch it.
