Super absorbing multi-generational story. LOVED IT! Except for the ending. As usual, I wanted an epilogue.

pickIt's a story about families and all the messy and beautiful ways they are formed. This was a quick read, and while I am conflicted about India, the mc, I loved the kids and their voices. This was my March #Bookspin @TheAromaofBooks
pick4.5 ⭐This book is beautiful. This is a book for a non-biological child. Reiterating that while they may not have been birthed but they were wanted, waited for, and anxious to be met in the world. The illustrations are lovely they go right with the story, and this is sure to be one kids will read and parents will read to their children for years if not generations to come.

pick5 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ This book starts with a child asking their parent to tell them about the night they were born. it goes through the child being born and picked up and how special it was because the child is adopted. This helps normalize adoption. It‘s not a scary thing, it‘s what it is, and it‘s its own special view of how you came into the world. There are fabulous illustrations, and this is a forever classic by Jayme Lee Curtis.

pickI loved this book just like I loved Laurie Frankel‘s last novel. She paints such compelling and honest portraits of families.
Continuing the countdown of my books, from 1st to 25th, THE JACKAL‘S MISTRESS. Today it‘s my 8th novel, The Buffalo Solider from 2002. This was another novel in which Vermont was a microcosm for social changes occurring across America. (Also? My lovely bride, Victoria Blewer, took the cover photos.)
