Fierce Kingdom

 

Fierce Kingdom by Gin Phillips
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I forgot I read this, although it has only been a week or so since I finished it, hence the 3 stars. However, it wasn't a bad book and it would actually be a good book for book clubs--short, propulsive, thoughtful. More than just a thriller, it poses questions of what it means to love as a parent, what that looks like in the face of danger. What sacrifices do you make for your kids? How are our "sacrifices" really selfish? How do we judge how other people show love?

This is what you do when you have child, isn't it, open yourself up to unimaginable pain and then try to pretend away the possibilities.
