Wild Ginger 2

I cannot even imagine the pain Wild Ginger feels about her mom. The news of her death must have been horrifying. Her new life style waking up super early to go to the market just so she can buy her own food and pay for school sounds very rough. She has enough will power to make it through. I hope that Wild Ginger wins the Mao Quotation-Citing Contest. She has put in a significant amount of effort into preparing for it. I think Evergreen will become an important piece of Wild Ginger and Maple getting out of troube later on in the book. I am still enjoying the read, and am interested by the different life style they have; the ruler is everything.
