Book Review of White Oleander

White Oleander
White Oleander
Author: Janet Fitch
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Paperback


This is a great book overall. I wish the main character could have stayed with the young foster parents. I keep wondering what the main character's mom said to the foster-mother that prompted her suicide. The last family the girl was with was practically a brothel in my opinion. I felt sorry for the foster child who went gave birth, and walked out of the hospital like nothing ever happened. Some sad realities.
