Book Review of The Memory Keeper's Daughter

The Memory Keeper's Daughter
reviewed on + 3 more book reviews


A haunting book. In some ways, rather unsatisfying, as you keep waiting and waiting for something to happen. But finally, it's a lot like our lives really are, time passing without our realizing all the details, all the things that have gotten to where we find ourselves one day. A lot of themes in this book, that provide food for thought. Still, I have to say that I found Norah a rather repellent character, much more so than David. And I never did understand Paul and his refusal to believe in his father's love.
