I enjoyed Daughter's Keeper by Ayelet Waldman.  I would rate it a 5/10.  It was good.  A woman named Elaine never really had a great relationship with her daughter Olivia, but she was a proficient mother.  Elaine provided for her daughter, but cut herself off emotionally.  She would not hug her and was disgusted by her when the daughter went to her for affection or help from the time she was a baby.  Olivia was a good child and grew into a good person (in my perception anyway). 

Olivia met a man named Jorge on a trip to Mexico and had a wild love affair with him.  Jorge showed up on Olivia's doorstep one day and they started living together because Olivia didn't have the heart to tell him she wanted nothing further than their relationship in Mexico where after their first intimate encounter she realized she didn't really love him. 

Jorge eventually became involved with drugs and Olivia ended up having to go to jail for four years.  She discovered she was pregnant before the trial began, gave birth to the baby and acted as it's mother for a couple of months before she had to begin serving her sentence. 

The book was sad and a random pick from the library. I just wanted a light book for entertainment and this book was good for that and not boring.  If it were a movie it would be rated R for sexual content and language.

Although it was well-written (to me at least) and not boring, it just didn't grab my heart strings as something that I became completely emotionally swept up in, but this is just my taste.  A different person may just really enjoy this book.  It's just a matter of taste.  There was something morally not far-reaching enough for me.  I don't have the words to describe it nor do I fully understand what it is myself... just my taste is all I can think of.
