The Memory Keeper's Daughter
by Kim Edwards
The Memory Keeper's Daughter. (3/16/2007)
This is undoubtedly the best book I have read for years. I am an avid reader - and I was unable to put this book down. No-one was fed and no housework was done until I finished this amazing book.
I have been a Nurse for over 40 years, and when I started Nursing in 1959, children with Down Syndrome (it was called Mongolism then) were mostly put in an institution and many were kept a family secret, so I found this book totally believable.
I loved every page of this book, and am eagerly awaiting the next novel that Kim Edwards writes.
I have passed this book on to family and friends, and everyone has agreed that this book is AMAZING. Thanks Kim - and hurry on with your next novel.
