Holmes always knew she was adopted , when her birth mother reached out later in life , instead of answers ,she got more questions. Her father reached out as well and what transpires is unsettling & strange ,unsettling Holmes life to such a degree I feared for her sanity. Dark & breathtakingly honest. This one will stay with me.

7-21-18: 29th finished book of 2018! If you have never read this author but are a fan of Chuck Palahniuk books then she might be for you. This one is a memoir and was a fascinating take on the author‘s biological and adoptive parents and how she managed to handle each set.

In this memoir, Homes, who has known since she was a child that she was adopted, meets her birth parents and grapples with the unhappy reality of who they are versus her childhood fantasies, making her question her sense of self. Truthful. Unsettling. #memoir
