Lap Baby by Amy Q. Barker – Review by Rebecca Hill

Lap Baby: Emotional Women’s Fiction by Amy Q. Barker
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is a work of fiction, however it is based on truth for the children who fly under the age of two. It made me think. It also haunted me much like the characters who were haunted for 20 years. This book was so good! There is one explicit scene at the end of the book. I loved the prologue and how the story started. Julie Geiger is a flight attendant who was working during a horrific plane crash. She was one of 4 survivors; the story follows the lives of these survivors. Paige was a “lap baby” during the crash, and the only baby who survived. Marie’s baby did not survive, and she blames that loss on Julie. Julie and Marie (and to a lesser degree the other two survivors) find their lives on hold for twenty years, unable to move past the plane crash. I loved the growth in the characters and how they learned to move forward. There was a twist at the end that I didn’t see coming and was awesome too! This book is a fantastic read and worth every minute of your time.
