Review title: Reads like a bad romance novel
Product review: This author seems preoccupied with thin women, their flat stomachs, their hair swept up into chignons, and how they tuck their legs up under themselves. The prose is too precious. The book takes its time early on, then lurches forward abruptly. Every major character seems to have stepped right out of a soap opera: the mother is wildly successful, the father is a successful doctor AND photographer, the son is a successful musician, the nurse is a fierce political advocate--not an average person among them. And for all its empathy toward people with Down syndrome, none of the book is told from the daughter's perspective. This book isn't about the daughter, it's about everyone in the family except the daughter. It's about the effects her existence and her disability had on the family. She is little more than a plot device, which is disappointing.
