He Ain't Heavy...She's My Sister

April's book club brought us back to the former building that we used to have book club in.  In an interesting twist, Fat Man's opened up again after being closed for a few months.  A club member had asked if it was ok to try it there again, and we gave it another try.  It wasn't bad.  It was like welcoming a new friend back from vacation...ALMOST.  We don't have the convience of having a back room anymore, but it seems like we are in our own little area when we met.

What do you do when a child ends up missing?  What happens to everyone?  Can you watch them all crumble?  What will the glue be to fix them, if any?  A very interesting book that I think tackles these situations well.  You can't imagine going through that these characters went through.  It's a tough situation, but again, it's a book that makes a poignant remark.  All of the members seemed to like it again.  I don't think there was much groan about the book.  It was an interesting read, and a good discussion.
