Book Review of The Memory Keeper's Daughter

The Memory Keeper's Daughter
reviewed on


In 1964 during a Blizzard, a doctor delivers his own wife's twins. The boy is perfect, however he immediately notices the girl has Down's syndrome. He tells his nurse to bring the baby to an institution, instead she runs away with the child and raises it as her own.
This book was very well written and shows how lives can be forever intertwined with a spur of the moment decision.
