A Concise Chinese-English Dictionary for Lovers - Xiaolu Guo

[Ruth]

The first thing to note about this book is that it is not a dictionary! I mention it, because reading reviews on Amazon, I noticed that some people thought that it was, which was why they bought it.

Thanks for that Ruth

I read this recently and felt a little disappointed by it, as I had heard favourable things.

 

It started with a lot of promise, but like Ruth says, but then you realise how so self-centred and unlikable the main characters were. they both didn't work as a partnership either for me, I just couldn't see how they got together. Although I didn't give up, by the end I was glad to get rid of both of them.

 

Clever idea, but I wish I actually cared about it.
