After seeing the Lifetime movie, I had to read the book. It was a very compelling book; I kept squeaking out time to read it a few pages at a time and did read it in about a week and a half just a little at a time. It is about a man who gives his daughter away at birth because she had Down Syndrome. The story then focuses on the lives of Phoebe (the daughter given away), Paul (her 'normal' twin), Dr. Henry (the father), Norah (the mother), and Caroline Gil (the nurse who took Phoebe in when her father wanted her brought to an institution). I really enjoyed this book and found that the character of Norah reminds me of Nora from "A Doll's House."
