Hello, my name is Davida and I'm a Rachel Joyce addict. That's why after reading "Perfect" I couldn't wait for her next novel and had to buy this short story. Once again, she doesn't disappoint! You can read my review of this here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2014/07/21/the-scent-of-letting-go/

Woohoo! This is my 300th book review! See what I thought of this historical, biographical, women's fiction novel that is being touted as a "summer read" (because of the romance aspect) but I call it "Heaven Scent" (and no, that's not a misspelling) on my blog now! https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/07/12/heaven-scent/

4.5/5 Stars! I knew nothing about the Japanese occupation of China during WWII, but this historical, women's, fiction novel really helped fill in that gap. Take a look at my #bookreview on my blog here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2020/10/09/the-bird-in-the-bamboo-cage/
