A review by ashmagoffin
Foster by Claire Keegan

5.0

A simple but impactful short story. Claire Keegan's novellas are short but she always manages to have a lot to stay. A neglected child from a big family stays with relatives while she waits for a sibling to be born. This book gave me the heartwarming vibes of Anne of Green Gables while subtly pointing to numerous social issues in rural Ireland. Keegan captures the beauty of the seemly mundane, I cannot wait to read the rest of her backlist.
