I can best describe this as a weird book. The novel follows Kitty’s life which is really messed up or Kitty is -mentally I would say. She loses a child to a miscarriage and goes off the deep end after that. She becomes obsessed with kids and anything to do with babies. She hangs around the school presumably waiting for her son to come out but he’s never going to. Throughout the story Kitty is trying to find out who she is-nobody can seem to tell her anything she wants or needs to know. Her mother left when Kitty was a young girl-she can barely remember her and her four brothers can’t seem to tell her anything about her mother-they all have different stories. The book takes several strange twists throughout before coming to an ending that I was surprised made sense. Reading this book makes you remember that things aren’t always the way they seem to be. I wouldn’t say it was a bad book or a good book-it was just ok. I’m donating it to the library though as it isn’t one I’d keep on my shelf.
