It's hard not to fall in love with the main characters in Sherry Boas' books, so don't bother trying. The flow of her prose, the detail of her descriptions, and her lovable leading ladies are among the reasons I enjoy her novels so much.
In Laughter of Angels, Verdi travels to Shanghai to meet the woman who saved her life when she was a baby. She discovers a great deal about herself and her relationships through Sun Yong and those individuals the elderly woman introduces to her during their visits.
Boas explores a number of prolife issues in depth. Of course, the one child policy in China is discussed, but there's a significantly more to the all lives matter (from womb to tomb) debate in her stories.
What counts as love? Who is worthy of love? Can people determine the worth of other people? These and several more questions are taken into consideration.
The story is compelling and interesting. I guessed parts of the ending before reading it, but that didn't bother me.
I highly recommend Laughter of Angels and the Lily series of novels by Sherry Boas.
