The Chinese believe that an individual's characteristics and personality traits are all etched onto one's face. Broken down into chapters, focusing on a particular aspect of the face. Illustrated examples. Charts and tables for easy reference Chinese face reading is deeply rooted in Chinese culture and evidence of its importance and use has been recorded as far back as during China's Warring States Period (481-221 BC). The Chinese believe that an individual's characteristics and personality traits are all etched onto one's face. Not only can one gain insight into another's personality, one's past and future is written onto his or her face. Understanding and being able to read facial features and marks (such as moles and wrinkles) means that a person is able to prepare him or herself for what destiny might bring. Filled with illustrations and examples and written in an easy-to-understand manner, this updated book is an essential read for anyone who seeks to know how an ancient art is still relevant for contemporary times. Dr. Evelyn Lip studied and trained in London as an architect. She holds a PhD and Masters in Architecture, and a Diploma in Interior Design. She was one of the first few authors to pen a book in the English language on feng shui in the 70s, when the subject was still relatively unknown in many parts of the world. Today, she is a well-regarded feng shui consultant, and also an accomplished artist and Chinese opera singer.

"A radiant debut."—Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Book Lovers THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! Named One of the Hottest Reads of Summer 2022 by Today ∙ Parade ∙ PopSugar ∙ USA Today ∙ SheReads ∙ BuzzFeed ∙ BookBub ∙ Bustle ∙ and more! Six summers to fall in love. One moment to fall apart. A weekend to get it right. They say you can never go home again, and for Persephone Fraser, ever since she made the biggest mistake of her life a decade ago, that has felt too true. Instead of glittering summers on the lakeshore of her childhood, she spends them in a stylish apartment in the city, going out with friends, and keeping everyone a safe distance from her heart. Until she receives the call that sends her racing back to Barry’s Bay and into the orbit of Sam Florek—the man she never thought she’d have to live without. For six summers, through hazy afternoons on the water and warm summer nights working in his family’s restaurant and curling up together with books—medical textbooks for him and work-in-progress horror short stories for her—Percy and Sam had been inseparable. Eventually that friendship turned into something breathtakingly more, before it fell spectacularly apart. When Percy returns to the lake for Sam’s mother’s funeral, their connection is as undeniable as it had always been. But until Percy can confront the decisions she made and the years she’s spent punishing herself for them, they’ll never know whether their love might be bigger than the biggest mistakes of their past. Told over the course of six years and one weekend, Every Summer After is a big, sweeping nostalgic story of love and the people and choices that mark us forever.
