I don't think I'm ready for this book. As a mother of older children and a soon-to-be mother of another, reading about motherhood is just not what I'm interested in. And yet--- the beginning of this book was very interesting. I liked the description of the setting- it was definitely unsettling. Give me a few years- I might want to come back to this one. The cover of "Elsewhere" is gorgeous and I appreciate the spooky, but interesting writing style of Alexis Schaitkin.
