I have read most of Diane Chamberlain's books. I was looking forward to reading "The Dream Daughter" but when I started reading it and it involved time travel I didn't think I would enjoy it. But I think this is one of her best yet. The book really made me think how I would handle some of the situations the main character Carly Sears had to get through. She was much more brave than I think I could ever be. This is a great book club book, there will be a lot of discussion revolving this book. Definitely a 5 out of 5 stars!! Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher of this book for my ARC copy for honest review.
Here is Amazon's description of the book:
When Carly Sears, a young woman widowed by the Vietnam war, receives the news that her unborn baby girl has a heart defect, she is devastated. It is 1970, and she is told that nothing can be done to help her child. But her brother-in-law, a physicist with a mysterious past, tells her that perhaps there is a way to save her baby. What he suggests is something that will shatter every preconceived notion that Carly has. Something that will require a kind of strength and courage she never knew existed. Something that will mean an unimaginable leap of faith on Carly's part.
And all for the love of her unborn child.
The Dream Daughter is a rich, genre-spanning, breathtaking novel about one mother's quest to save her child, unite her family, and believe in the unbelievable. Diane Chamberlain pushes the boundaries of faith and science to deliver a novel that you will never forget.
