Pamela Kampwerth | 5 comments Your questions have intrigued me and I will make reading this book a priority. Maybe I will get to listen to it on my trip to Iowa this weekend!


Anne Kunzen | 9 comments I just finished Dan Brown's "Inferno", also Pam's suggestion...I liked it! Lots of good details about overpopulation and the search for a solution. I liked that, and the action kept the story from getting slow.

Pamela Kampwerth | 5 comments I know I am late replying but I finished the book! I enjoyed the historical references. I had an aunt who flew in the 50's and 60's. She always amazed me.

At first I was disappointed that Sookie never confronted her mother but by the end of the book I thought it was the right thing to do.

I would want to know if there was mental illness in my family...or any other medical history that might impact a child's life.

I liked Sookie's family values - for her own family - and think she was right to meet her mother's family and pursue that relationship. I think the more connections and relationships we have in life, the more we learn about ourselves.

Pamela Kampwerth | 5 comments I really liked the mini-rebellion and it suited her well. My family is really good at not confronting so I understand why she didn't do it especially given the possible mental issues.
All in all a good book and as I said, I liked the historical references.
