I devoured this masterpiece in one sitting. Her way with words is like no other.

Brilliant. A great testament to how people can persevere, and find ways to adapt.

Absolutely hilarious! These short stories had me in stitches on our camping trip. Great vacation book. I'll never look at an owl the same way again.

I couldn't put this book down. It's an intricately written story about a Nigerian refugee - Little Bee, and her journey after she is released from an immigration detention center in London. Her story is told from two narrators - Little Bee and magazine publisher Sarah O'Rourke. As their lives intersect, you can't help but wonder what you would do if you were in Sarah's situation. A gripping and marvelous story.

A haunting story about Hong Kong's wealthy Chinese and the British and American expats who share their high life until Japanese occupation in the ‘40's.

Incredible memoir. I haven't had a book stay with me for so long since The Kite Runner. I'm still in awe of her grit and determination to study her way out of a tough childhood in Idaho and end up.... well, you read the rest!
