i picked this up in the domicile at work and have had it for a while, but someone just requested it on my book swap.
i thought this was a great book- short synopsis. Bibi Chen has planned a vacation to Burma for her and 11 of her friends. A few days before they embark on their trip, Bibi Chen is murdered. She becomes the narrator of this intriguing story.
The 11 friends continue on their journey, coming across some interesting tour guides, changing their itinerary when they please, and end up disappearing on Christmas Day.
As the story unfolds you get to meet the characters and get such a good description of them. (I love getting to know characters!) Parts of this book are hilarious, and just so believable.
I definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes a good story, wants to learn more about other countries, and who likes Amy Tan. So glad I picked this up!!
