Title: Engrossing, moving, profound
Review: I was swept away by this book; it puts you into the lives of the characters in a deep and profound way. I did not at all view it as a "light summer read", but rather as a purveyor of some deep and interesting truths.So often our society villifies young people who've made a dreadful and tragic mistake, as Matt did. In this novel we can see from his point of view how ready he is to agree with the town, and how little he deserves that villification, and also how Jen is able to give him some small relief from that hatred and start him on a path of healing. At the end, however, the reader finds one, of several, reasons why the title is "Someone Else's Child". Jen's ultimate loyalty has to be to her own. And although, in using Jen and Matt as the two voices of the novel, the author keeps us a step removed from the horrific pain the parents of the dead girls feel, it is still acknowledged and woven thoroughly into the story.As an inveterate reader, I highly recommend this book!
