The Memory Keeper's Daughter by Kim Edwards

The Memory Keeper's Daughter
Kim Edwards


"Photography is all about secrets. The secrets we all have and will never tell."

"You can't spend the rest of your life tiptoeing around to try and advert disaster. It won't work. You'll just end up missing the life you have."

I wanted to like this book, so many people recommended the book to me and said how good it was. I read the first hundred pages fairly quickly but then the story decided to slow down and got really boring. The writing of the book was alright, not the best. The plot of the book was actually really interesting and fascinating but the way it was was written did something.

  • There were way to many sub-plots in the novel. This made the story more confusing then it ever had to be.
  • Over half of the scenes in the book were ruined by the author herself. She wants to address a bunch of topics but they are naive.
I don't know what else more I can say about this book. I usually enjoy little parts of books that I have read but this one was just bad (sorry to everyone that recommended it to me and thought it was fantastic). But who knows, maybe you will read it and love it! This is just one opinion.

Till the next time!
