Book Reviews of Family Tree

Book Review: Not very engrossing and easy to lose interest
Summary: 2 Stars


This really sounded like a good concept. Interesting plot, etc. However, I found this book to be borderline boring and hard to follow. In fact, I found it to be very self indulgent and the characters unsympathetic.

I could hardly finish the book and found myself wanting to skip ahead pages to get this finished. Despite the fact that they had a newborn, this was ALL they could talk about and seemed like they had discussions with random people. Seemed unrealistic.

Summary of Family Tree

Dana Clarke has always longed for the stability of home and family?her own childhood was not an easy one. Now she has married a man she adores who is from a prominent New England family, and she is about to give birth to their first child. But what should be the happiest day of her life becomes the day her world falls apart. Her daughter is born beautiful and healthy, but no one can help noticing the African American traits in her appearance. Dana?s husband, to her great shock and dismay, begins to worry that people will think Dana has had an affair.
The only way to repair the damage done is for Dana to track down the father she never knew and to explore the possibility of African American lineage in his family history. Dana?s determination to discover the truth becomes a poignant journey back through her past and her husband?s heritage that unearths secrets rooted in prejudice and fear.
Barbara Delinsky?s Family Tree is an utterly unforgettable novel that asks penetrating questions about race, family, and the choices people make in times of crisis?choices that have profound consequences that can last for generations.
