[quote=Anonymous] What is everyone reading this month? I just finished listening to "Keeping Lucy" by Tammy Greenwood. What is it about? It is set in Massachusetts in 1971. A woman gives birth to her second child, who has downs syndrome. Her husband and her FIL have the baby put in an institution before the woman is even discharged from the hospital after giving birth. Two years later, a newspaper reporter writes a series of articles about the appalling conditions at the institution where her daughter is. The woman goes to the institution to actually see her daughter for the first time since giving birth to her. She ends up kidnapping her child and going on the run with her. What did you think of it? I thought it was really good but overly dramatic. Why did you pick that particular book to read? I read the short summary of the book on my library website and thought it sounded good. How did you acquire the book? Downloaded from my library website. [/quote]
