Customer Reviews:
A celebration of strength 
While many Chinese traditions, foods, observances, beliefs, rituals, and rules fuel PEONY IN LOVE, so do the strength of Chinese women and the ancient desire of all women to express their unique views and experiences despite the many demands and restrictions history has placed upon them. A celebration of these traditions and of true stories from Chinese history combine to make PEONY IN LOVE a highly original, cherished work of art.
not even close to Snow Flower! 
I fell in love with Snow Flower and the Secret Fan, so I was very excited to read Peony in Love.
It’s not a total waste of time, but you should know before reading that, it does not hold a candle to Snow Flower.
Peony in Love 
This is an intriguing and engaging story, although I don’t recommend it for those for disdain the supernatural. What this story seems to really be, though, is about a young woman learning about love and commitment. Lisa See’s knowledge and research into Chinese custom is truly in-depth, and Peony is well-defined. It is well worth the read.
