The Good Mother
By Sinead Moriarty
More chic lit. Twelve year old Jess lives with her mom and two brothers. Dad has left, and now has a baby with a younger woman. Various family stuff happens, but Jess ends up getting an aggressive from of AML. The family is further traumatized by her death. Luke, the eldest brother gets his girlfriend pregnant at 18. Should they keep the baby? They eventually decide to, and two months after Jess dies, the baby girl is born.
Easy reading. Despite the death of 12 year old Jess to cancer, the crying and tears goes on and on and on and on........OK, we know it's sad, but at the end it was just filler.
Rating: 3/5
Recommendation: If you like chic lit.
