MIRACLE CREEK
BY ANGIE KIM
A fascinating story about a family that owns a facility that offers treatments via hyperbaric chambers for those suffering with autism and other conditions. It is also about the parents of those children, their relationships with their children and each other.
The parents get to know each other well, and jealousies and resentments arise over the course of the story. The drama among the characters becomes second in importance to a horrendous event that occurs near the end of the book, affecting everyone.
I enjoyed this book almost completely, as it was interesting and different from anything else I’ve read, but I was unable to give it 5 stars based on a serious sexual situation that I felt was treated too lightly.
Other than that situation, the book was a great read and I recommend it.
Thanks to NetGalley and Farrar, Straus and Giroux and Sarah Crichton Books for an ARC.
