The Memory Keeper's Daughter.
Is an interesting book. It's by Kim Edwards, and I've been reading it for quite a while, I'm shamed to say. It's only...*looks at book*...401 pages. I'm only on page...189 and i've been reading it for hm...a year? Yeah. that's sad.

It's just...BORING. Well, it was. It's about a guy who delivers his own twins and finds out that his daughter has down syndrome. Instead of doing the normal thing and doing anything he can to take care of her, he gives him to his nurse and tell her to take the baby to an institute. The nurse is like: hell naw, i love this kid. and raises it herself. He tells his wife that the baby died and keeps his son. Basically, it goes on and on about how they live their lifes. Caroline, the nurse, is awesome. I love her part of the story. Norah, the wife, however is a bitch. Well, not really. She's just so angsty! i mean..it's been 13 years since her daughter 'died' and she's still...weird. Yeah, yeah, I know you never get over the death of your child, but seriously! she acts like she's the only person in the world who's ever lost someone. She is always drinking and she's always complaining about how her husband loves his camera, which she bought him! and how he never takes time to spend time with Paul, his son. He does though. She's just too busy angst-complaining to realize. Ugh. I hate her.

Anyways. It's a really boring book, but they have little spurts of interesting stuff that makes you continuing to read in the hope that it'll get better. @___@ whatever.

OH! and Norah has the balls to have an affair. AN AFFAIR. fuckin' whore.

...sorry. i really really hate her. XD

I'm a very passionate person about my books, in case you haven't noticed, and so I tend to take sides. I took Henry, the father's, side in this. Even though he got rid of his daughter, I think he intended well, therefore...I forgive him. And Caroline, I just love her. She's amazing. Paul and Phoebe (the daughter) are equally cool. But Norah...FSDHAFJDS;SAFS. diediediehate. I don't care how much she's "been through". I fuckin' hate her and hope she get seriously injured later on in the book. Piece of shit.

Anyways! now that I've rambled on about my newest book...and made myself out to be a HUGE geek (which, i probably am), I'd just like to say that I'm hungry and my arm hurts.

Thank You, and Good Night. :D
