What Members Thought
Some random thoughts:
Molly is definitely not an autism case that the author presents us with but rather a sort of arrested development. This could stem from mother using drugs when pregnant which, incidentally, is mentioned a bit further into the book. These deficiencies could be overcome fully... or not. It usually depends on particular cases and what care they have had. I know of some similar RL cases where the kid did a full recovery growing into a rather shrewdsy adult. And some cases where ...more

I can't remember the last book that I read that made me so angry, sad, or filled with laughter and bawling my eyes out as much as The Maid. Molly the maid is my hero. I just want to make a gazillion picket signs and march up and down the streets shouting her praises. She is simply a unique, and special person that I was totally taken with from the start.
I hated how she was treated because of her simpleness. She was treated very badly almost like she was stupid but stupid she was not. In fact Mol ...more
