We were so enamored by Grace Lin's TEDX talk, we also want to read When the Sea Turned Silver. Glad we have some time to read over this holiday week.

I didn't get to Starry River of the Sky last week. Soon I hope. I do love Grace Lin. I loved As Brave As You. It's a slow book that sneaks up on you and packs a wallop, but I never expect anything less from Reynolds.
