The Memory Keeper's Daughter by Kim Edwards

5.0

Breathtakingly beautiful. I love the use of photography as metaphor and the way the concept of memory and music is used. This is so much more than just a story. The characters feel so real, and I felt a part of myself represented in each of them in some way, even if the story takes place in a time before I was born. This book isn't about the difficulties of raising a child with down syndrome, it doesn't preach right and wrong, and it does an excellent job of presenting how different situations can be interpreted so differently by different people.

I really recommend this book. It's amazing.
