SHANGHAI GIRLS

  Shanghai  girls is the book that is drawing two girls' surviving life from China to America when Japanese attacked China. It starts with the pretty basic and simple lives of these siblings in Shanghai. But the story gets intense as more events happen around their lives. These two girls start as the top, luxurious girls who work as models of magazines in Shanghai. But the war, it changed everything around them. I've never get to thought about every detail that war can bring to citizens' lives. When I had thought of the word 'war', it just appeared to be something that the soldiers kill their enemies and lots of explosions. 

   Through this book, I could actually see the every pain that the citizens can experience throughout their lifetime just by one war. The two girls lost their parents, friends, ones they loved, and their own freedoms. They had to suffer the poverty, and there were no more freedoms left for them. They were sold to one old Chinese man to get married to his sons from their father's debt. Their whole lives were at the mess. Even though they have been trying through out the stories to escape from their fates, they found it much more complicated and difficult to escape.
