Review: Gather the Daughters

Gather the Daughters Gather the Daughters by Jennie Melamed
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Gather the Daughters by Jennie Melamed hooked me because it is described as a book about a cult on an island.  I love a good cult book.  This one definitely delivered!  This book isn't going to be for everyone because it deals with some heavy issues including child abuse and rape.  The chapters alternate points of view of girls and women in the story.  Each of them deals with their society and their personal situations in a different way.  Rebellion...conformity...there doesn't seem to be a perfect solution.  One person's utopia is another person's nightmare.
