The Memory Keeper's Daughter
by Kim Edwards
Truely compassionate! (11/16/2007)
Personally I view this book differently than others-- Something I find very interesting about the human mind is that everyone views things differently. And just because you may not like it, someone else might, and may affect them in some way that may be life- changing. Because if you are a true lover of books, then you'd step back and realize that maybe it's not our opinion that matters only; it's everyone's. INCLUDING THE AUTHOR.

I truly enjoyed this book, and found the characters very interesting. At times there were confusing parts, and not exactly the best sentence skills; but I honestly thought that if you have a true understanding of emotion and feelings, then you'd enjoy this. I've always been intrigued by "the web of lies", and how it really and truly affects people's lives in an immense way. This book is definitely one to take a look at; not a "time waster", but a great way to keep your life in perspective on how really blessed we can be.
