Review of 'The Fifth Child' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

There was something very endearing about the relationship between the mother Harriet and her fifth child Ben. At times the trajectory seemed very grim but I wouldn't call it a dark book, somehow it simultaneously celebrates the best and worst in people.
