" I love this series. I hope Lisa See brings Hulan and David back again.I am really glad I read Snow Flower and Peony first. The cultural attitudes are so interesting in how they have carried on throughout history. I find Chinese culture fascinating. I can't wait to read Shanghai Girls. "

" Listened to this audio book. I really enjoy the insight into the Chinese culture and this one focused on American factories in the interior of China. Lots of mayhem and murder and a twisting set of mysteries. "

" I did like these books, I am interested enough in Chinese culture to read them and think it was ok, but I wouldn't rave over it, in some ways they are a little predictable, but in general they are entertaining. "

" Good detective type novel, but it is the background of China and the culture that makes it good. "

" By far my favorite of the Red Princess series. All of her books give you a fascinating insight into Chinese culture, history, politics and the complexities of intra-cultural relationships all very subtly intertwined within a good story. I'm amazed and embarrassed at how little I knew about China but I very much look forward to learning more. I'm glad I discovered Lisa See and will definitely read all of her books. "

" I don't usually read mystery/detective like books but this book was able to keep me wanting to read till the end. I enjoyed how See is able to start out with a single event that not only develops but also allow you to follow another culture along with it. "

" This is the second book in the "red princess" series. I didn't find the story as interesting as the first book, The Flower Net. But, it wasn't bad. I've heard the third, Dragon Bones, is the best in the series...so I'll keep going! "

" Lisa See is one of my favorite authors and I have read almost all of her books now. I read Flower Net first which is the sequel to The Interior. Both were very good mystery stories with a good window into Chinese culture, history, and social issues. "

" Interesting mix of cultures and story lines but not sure that it all combined together to make a coherent or satisfactory whole. Some sections were certainly full of suspense so that kept my interest going and made me want to finish the book. "
