Philomena (Movie Tie-In): A Mother, Her Son, and a Fifty-Year Search by Martin Sixsmith

3.0

Felt like it was fairly slow...definitely has very little relation to the movie, so if you want to read this based on the film, know that there's going to be a very different story here. The book concerns itself with the son's life rather than Philomena's search (the basis of the film). The first part was especially slow with its back and forth between the story of Philomena and her son and the politics of the time.
