The Valley of Amazement by Amy Tan

Gave this book five out of five stars. I read this in the Large Print Edition and at 908 pages it took me longer than I thought to complete it. I was captured by the story from the very beginning. I learned so much about being a courtesan because the author explained everything so well. After reading how much the main characters struggled throughout the story, the ending made me feel that the story was complete. Very compelling story that will tug at your heart and put a smile on your face by the end.
