I don't care for long reviews, so this will be short. If you like Barbara Delinsky, you will NOT be disappointed in this book. It's a pretty interesting subject, actually, two white parents giving birth to a baby with African American features. Neither parent has any idea where in the family history this could have come from. Herein lies your plot. I really hate for one of this author's books to end, but I already have another to start reading. Hope you enjoy "Family Tree" as I did.
I read " FAMILY TREE " and wished she had another book this good! This is a book you WILL NOT WANT TO PUT DOWN. :-) It's about a couple who are married and have their first baby! The baby'sroom is decorated aned the bags are packed are waiting for Dana to have her first labor contraction to get to the hospital to have their baby! Once they get to the hospital.... They ARE SUPRISED! From then on... the book gets better anf better and deeper and deeper. (It's far from a fluff book.) It surround families and friends and spectators and their pasts. and how they effect each other. Trust Me... You'll Love it! It contains : Family - Love - Suspense - Digging in one background - Light Mytery - Love and how it holds you togather through anything. Susan / sedge1057
Family Tree was a wonderful story! I loved the warmth and comfort of the women in the story and the baby came across as adorable and true to life. I was somewhat frustrated with the attitude of which parent was responsible for the baby's skin tone, but since that was the subject of the story, it had to be played out. I was also frustrated with how easy-going the mother was toward her husband's attitude. I wouldn't have put up with his attitude so well. I understand that he had a hard time dealing with the baby's skin color but he didn't treat the people around him very well and, in my opinion, didn't deserve that much understanding. There is a bit of a mystery concerning this subject also, but was not too hard to figure out before the answer was revealed in the story. All-in-all, I enjoyed the book very much as was a little disappointed when it was over. Happy reading!Read full review
