Another of Lisa See's books that I loved from cover to cover。 It's heartwarming and satisfying to read about the beautiful bonds of the women who support each other。 But it's also sad and incomprehensible to read about horrific customs like footbinding。 I can't imagine breaking the bones in my feet, so I can marry well。 Any more than I can imagine bending to the will of my mother-in-law or purchasing a concubine for my husband。 Yet all this and more are part of a woman's life in 15th-century Chi Another of Lisa See's books that I loved from cover to cover。 It's heartwarming and satisfying to read about the beautiful bonds of the women who support each other。 But it's also sad and incomprehensible to read about horrific customs like footbinding。 I can't imagine breaking the bones in my feet, so I can marry well。 Any more than I can imagine bending to the will of my mother-in-law or purchasing a concubine for my husband。 Yet all this and more are part of a woman's life in 15th-century China。Lisa See completely transports you to this era and shows you what it's like to be a mother, daughter, wife, daughter-in-law, and friend。 She shows you the harshness of some relationships and the beauty of others。 In addition, she excels at demonstrating the life of women in an elite family。And finally, she allows you to understand that although most women accept the archaic customs and ideals, some, like Lady Tan, long for more and fight the battle to break free。I enjoyed every minute of this book and highly recommend it。 Many thanks to NetGalley and Scribner for providing a complimentary copy of the book。#netgallley #LadyTansCircleOfWomen #LisaSee #ScribnerReview originally posted at:https://www。princetonbookreview。com/b。。。 。。。more

Lady Tan’s Circle of Women follows the life throughout its many stages of the titular character。 This well-researched work of historical fiction had well developed characters that left me thinking about them and their lives。 It’s especially interesting that the novel is based on a real woman, although it is a work of fiction。 Lisa See did a great job capturing my attention and getting me to really care about the life of a woman from so long ago。 It makes you see that despite time and despite soc Lady Tan’s Circle of Women follows the life throughout its many stages of the titular character。 This well-researched work of historical fiction had well developed characters that left me thinking about them and their lives。 It’s especially interesting that the novel is based on a real woman, although it is a work of fiction。 Lisa See did a great job capturing my attention and getting me to really care about the life of a woman from so long ago。 It makes you see that despite time and despite social status, all women are going through and have been going through similar problems throughout the millennia。 Overall I loved this book! 。。。more

Lady Tan’s Circle of Women an enthralling story of women supporting women and was inspired by the true story of a woman physician from 15th-century China。 I found the resemblance of the struggles of women in the 1400’s compared to the struggles women still face today startling。 The daily life of the different women depicted in this book was fascinating。 The details of foot binging in particular were heart wrenching。 I enjoyed witnessing Tan and Meiling’s friendship grow and cheered them on throu Lady Tan’s Circle of Women an enthralling story of women supporting women and was inspired by the true story of a woman physician from 15th-century China。 I found the resemblance of the struggles of women in the 1400’s compared to the struggles women still face today startling。 The daily life of the different women depicted in this book was fascinating。 The details of foot binging in particular were heart wrenching。 I enjoyed witnessing Tan and Meiling’s friendship grow and cheered them on throughout the book。 This is the third book I’ve read by Lisa See and would highly recommend it!

Lady Tan’s Circle of Women is a fascinating look at Chinese medicine in the 1400’s。 As always, Lisa See creates a beautiful and heart-wrenching story about Chinese women – their strengths, difficulties and lives。 It highlights the difficulty of women finding quality care in a world dominated by men doctors and the complexities of female friendship in such a stunning and realistic way。 And I particularly loved Tan Yunxian’s relationship with her grandparents。 Highly recommended for fellow fans of Lady Tan’s Circle of Women is a fascinating look at Chinese medicine in the 1400’s。 As always, Lisa See creates a beautiful and heart-wrenching story about Chinese women – their strengths, difficulties and lives。 It highlights the difficulty of women finding quality care in a world dominated by men doctors and the complexities of female friendship in such a stunning and realistic way。 And I particularly loved Tan Yunxian’s relationship with her grandparents。 Highly recommended for fellow fans of See’s previous works! 。。。more

This novel is exceptional! ❤️ So much intricate research, woven together to tell a compelling story。 These characters will stay with me for a while, especially Lady Tan。 I can’t write a review that would do this book justice。 But, it is a must read, in my opinion。 It is astounding to me, the parallels between the struggles of women in the 1400’s and how strongly they correlate to the struggles women still face in 2022。 This book beautifully emphasizes the circle of women we have in our life and This novel is exceptional! ❤️ So much intricate research, woven together to tell a compelling story。 These characters will stay with me for a while, especially Lady Tan。 I can’t write a review that would do this book justice。 But, it is a must read, in my opinion。 It is astounding to me, the parallels between the struggles of women in the 1400’s and how strongly they correlate to the struggles women still face in 2022。 This book beautifully emphasizes the circle of women we have in our life and how we must build each other up, and support each other。 Stunning!! 💗 。。。more
