Dance Upon The Air

A book I was actually quite surprised by last year and which I managed to somehow forget to review...I'm odd like that, I suppose. I requested the book to review on total impulse (partly because of the gorgeous cover) and was surprised to be completely absorbed in the family's issues. It turned out to be one of the better contemporary novels I've read and one that had some actual meat in it instead of just a feel-good story. It explores threads of what it means to truly be family and what the boundaries of family and career really ought to mean to us.

Content:
There was one circumstance of where a guy had a child out of wedlock and for awhile it didn't look like it was portrayed as anything wrong, but then the author subtly highlighted several consequences of it and my moralistic sense was satisfied. :)

Thanks to the publisher for a free reading copy. A favorable review was not required.
