Amazing! One you will not want to put down as you have to find out what happens next. Love the way she easily shares the “secret” bond between sisters no matter what stands in their way. A must read!

This book made me cry at work.
Not only is it based on a real scandal, which makes it so much more real, but it is told so well. The things these children experienced and how it impacts lives now, years and years later, is crazy.
I loved getting to connect with these women and hear their story (even if it was fictional and just created around Georgia Tann).

So boring.
I didn't like the writing style too.

Full of rich yet sad history of an adopted orphan. The author really delves deep into the value of knowing who your family really is. I loved the unique concept of the book and how it switched from past to present. Definitely a new favorite book!
