The Memory Keeper's Daughter
I just finished this book, and I have to say I don't think it lived up to its reviews. (Sorry, Holly!) It never drew me in, and I had to make myself finish it. The characters were all extremely sad and self-centered, which made the whole book feel one-dimensional. I also found it completely unrealistic since societal attitudes about Down's syndrome had already begun changing in the 1960s.

It's okay, you're allowed to not like the book. :-) I'm sorry you couldn't get into it and didn't like it much.
