The Real Mother : A Novel

Rating:
Summary: THEIR WORST BOOK EVER!!!!!
Review: I have never written a review before. I am an avid reader and have read Judith Michaels books for years. This book is so bad I feel compelled to let other people know. I was so dissapointed in this book that I couldn't even finish it. The language was so foul. It is written so poorly and in such an immature fashion. This book has no depth. This book is offensive and a waste of time. It reads like they had to get a book out really fast to make a house payment or pay off some bills. I am so upset that I spent money on the hardcover version that I am going to try and find their website and let them know how offensive this book is. They have written such great stuff in the past and I was so happy when I saw a new book by them. I feel angry that they wrote such trash and had the nerve to actually put it in the book stores. No matter what you do, don't buy this book. It would be a waste of your hard earned money. I wish someone had warned me.
Thanks for listening.

Summary: I loved this book!
Review: I really loved this book. My own family is struggling with some difficult issues, and this story really made me feel hopeful because it pointed out that "atypical" families can still be strong and loving. I'm a big Judith Michael fan. This book, like all her books, is well-written, sensitive, thoughtful, and a great read.
