I love stories where different characters are tied together by one event. This one seems interesting. Thanks for a great review.

It seems like this book addresses a plethora of issues that society as a whole has yet to solve. I also think that describing events and feelings from different points of view is very intriguing indeed!

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting novel about a waitress finding a baby left behind in the restroom. The book divides the narration among different characters with their own problems and backstories. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

The book sounds interesting. The baby seems to be the center of everything and all the other events are curcling around that baby. Besides the topics the author raises in the book such as drug-use, immigration, military service, police corruption, religion, politics are very serious and interesting to learn about. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

A book revolving around a group of people experiencing one common event, in this case a baby being left on the bathroom floor of the restaurant the initial characters work at. Things rapidly progress from there, though it seems as if the reviewer liked the things I liked and disliked such as strength of character and too much swearing. Great job on BOTD!

This book has some really interesting characters that I have to urge to just dive into the book and get into their heads. The storyline is compelling, and it touches on so many relevant and controversial issues.

This book breaks my heart because if I had a baby I would not abandon my baby in a restaurant bathroom. If anything I would be going Mama Bear to find my baby. Other than that this book seems interesting.

This is an astonishing story. "...can a mother forget her sucking child, and she will not have compassion in the son of her womb? "

I wasn't sure about this book before I came here but oh boy do I want to read it now! Strong character development is my weak spot, gets me every time. And all the different perspectives that the story is told from is another alluring factor for me.

Thank you for such a thorough, informative, and inviting review!
