Pei Chen

Pei reads to immerse herself completely in a fictional world and writes to share that world with other readers. She has a penchant for books that leave her wrecked emotionally afterwards, either from the beauty of the story or the complexity of a character. BookBrowse is the first publication for which she has written. She practices family medicine in her spare hours.
