Consumer Reviews

This is a richly textured, moving novel about a mother’s journey after her son, Jacob, is prenatally diagnosed with Klinefelter syndrome, also known as 47,XXY chromosomal variation. Through learning what this diagnosis means for Jacob, Rachel discovers more about herself and the world around her than she ever thought possible in a way that is sure to inspire. This story will resonate with anyone who has a loved one with Klinefelter’s or who has a family.

Liz Hills, D.O., Family Practice

I was very impressed by the way the author educated us about Klinefelter syndrome, while portraying a loving and supportive family and extended family dealing with real life issues.  The description of the parents' emotions, decision-making, and their own education was especially good and - importantly - educates readers.  The wrap-up at the end of the book was excellent.   The workplace shenanigans were amusing and all too true to life.   This was a fast read that kept me engaged all the way through.
