Amy Tan The Hundred Secret Senses

Hardcover.Kwan, a seventeen-year-old Chinese half-sister, turns young Olivia's world upside down with her stories of ghosts of another time, tales that have a profound impact on Olivia's life and imagination, until she discovers a way to reconcile the ghosts of the past with her dreams of the future. Amy Tan's spiritual adventure seems real as if she is giving away personal secrets. For most of the book I was enthralled, the male characters strangely flat, but that doesn't matter.
