...we discussed The Abortionist's Daughter, by Elisabeth Hyde. Discussion synopsis: This book melded a murder mystery (abortion provider, Diana, murdered) with the issues surrounding abortion. In general, our group found the book did a decent job of exploring both sides of the issues surrounding abortion using typical scenarios, but that it did lean more toward the pro-choice side. None of us were surprised by who the murderer was in the end - we thought Hyde could have done a better job of developing multiple characters with motives to keep the suspense going. Final analysis: an okay book.
Next month's book: Red River, by Lalita Tademy. Dates: Sunday, February 17, 1:00-2:00 or Thursday, January 21, noon-1:00. Hope to see you there!
