Customer Reviews

A great read in many respects.

I loved this book because I love a good mystery and this one maintains suspense right up to the end with one surprise after another. IN fact I was up way past the time my eyes wanted to close because I had to find out the end.I loved this book because I have always wanted to sculpt and the artworks created fictionally were so real I can remember what they looked like and felt like to touch with the sculptor's hand, with the viewer's hand.I loved this book because I am a writer and revel in poetic language and the language in this book is exquisite: not a word too many and each just right.I loved this book because it took me to Barcelona where I could feel the rain on the street and because it took my to the southwest where I could feel the dry heat on my skin.What else could a reader want from a book?Well, one more thing: it made me think long after I had finished it.

Fascinating story, mystery and romance, a real page turner.

I read Laura Nadworny's The Memory Keeper on the plane to Stockholm and Jesse's fascinating tale sure made the trip seem shorter. It would make a great movie.
