The Red Thread: A Love Story

I don't read much fiction. When I do it is usually by accident. This one was a happy accident. It has all the things I like in it. Antiques and curios, art, ancient scriptures, asian food, chinese herbal medicine, reincarnation, even embroidered shoes. The love story is far from traditional and it would not surprise me if many readers missed the point entirely. I suppose also a good deal of readers would not consider the ending happy. Thank goodness there are some writers who do not write for the majority. Sorry I can't tell you why four stars and not five stars, this would spoil the book for you...........I don't like it when reviews tell too much of the story and give away the plot.
