Summary: Her Journey
Comment: Sookan is a girl from Seoul, Korea and she is taking a journey from her home land to New York City to go to college. She's making friends but has a hard time getting her work done. As she struggles with her family back home and her friends and school work in America she learns a lot about herself and the differences that there are between America and Korea. I thought that this book was pretty good, the thing I liked the most about this book was that she tried to do everything she could to get everything done, the thing that I disliked the most was there wasn't any action this was just a calm story that just kept talking about the same thing over and over again. She tried her best and still managed to be in touch with her family and still keep up her school work. Look for Gathering of Pearls to read the ending of this book.

Summary: I've read a lot of books and this one is good
Comment: I don't like to write reviews, usually, but I'm breaking the rule because this is such a great trilogy and deserves its five stars, not its two or three from .... These books have depth and the author writes above average and a true book of fiction will ferret you out of your world and into theirs and this one does enjoyably.

Summary: Why did she gather pearls?
Comment: I disliked this book because there was no action. In my opinion this book was very boring. The author gave the most detail when she was talking about Sookan's studying, and that wasn't very interesting.It was also kind of sad. The book didn't really have an ending. You had to think hard to realize what the author meant. I liked this book because what happened in the story could happen to any foreign exchange student. The author gave her thoughts and views on the character's predicaments. She included parts of Sookan's story even when she was off campus. When Sookan was baby-sitting her professor's kids she gave detail about what happened. She also gave a lot of detail when she explained her friend's problems. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to read. If you like books with action you shouldn't read Gathering of Pearls. I think girls will enjoy this book more because all of the main characters are girls. If you don't like sad books you shouldn't read this. This book left you wondering what it would be like to be in the main character's shoes.
