Starry Night Elf Reading Challenges '25 discussion

Throughout this challenge, I hope to post a region of the week. No, you don't have to read a book set in that area that particular week but I'd like for us to share recommendations.

Our first week focuses on China. Here are a few of my own picks listed in no particular order:

Fiction
1. The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan
2. The Kitchen God's Wife by Amy Tan

Nonfiction
1. Midnight in Peking: How the Murder of a Young Englishwoman Haunted the Last Days of Old China by Paul French
2. Monkey: The Journey to the West by Wu Cheng'en
