Inheritance: A Memoir of Genealogy, Paternity, and Love | Dani Shapiro

In order of publication. I've read the 2 middle ones, couldn't wait to get my hands on the bottom one and just discovered the top one. Haven't read any of her fiction yet, but if it's anything like her memoirs I know I will devour it. @Cinfhen @LauraBeth

LauraBeth Her marriage one is at the library and I‘m going to read that this month! I‘m going to buy Devotion and hopefully read that soon. I listened to the Roxanne Cody interview this evening while making dinner. I love that she said she was literally born to write that book. ❤️ 5y

Lmstraubie @LauraBeth I almost went to the bookstore for the event, but it's about 2 hours away. I was so glad they recorded the event. Her words just have a way of touching your soul. 5y

AlissaCMiles Love the covers of all of these 5y

kspenmoll Read the first 3 & am anxious to read Inheritance. She came to a bookstore about an hour or so away but weather was bad & it‘s all backroads.☹️ 5y

Lmstraubie @kspenmoll Are you talking about R.J. Julia's?? If yes, here is the interview: Dani Shapiro Uncovers Cathartic Family Secret in Latest Memoir by Just the Right Book with Roxanne Coady

Lmstraubie @AlissaCMiles I think the last one is my favorite, although they're all beautiful. 5y

Inheritance: A Memoir of Genealogy, Paternity, and Love | Dani Shapiro

pick

A “moral, ethical, human dilemma”
Dani Shapiro discovers at age 54, the man she adored, idolized, her anchor to Judaism her father Paul Shapiro, was not in fact her biological father. So much about this journey broke my heart, but the unwavering support from her Aunt Shirley was a beacon of light & a reminder love is thicker than blood. Inheritance is a remarkable follow up to Dani‘s previous memoir Devotion. Incredibly moving.

Insightsintobooks I'll have to look this one up once I finish Devotion. 5y

BarbaraBB Great review, stacked! 5y

RohitSawant Great review! 5y

Tanisha_A Recently read an interview article with Shapiro. Intriguing! Great review! 👌 5y

TrishB Lovely review 💕 5y

Crazeedi I must read both of these 5y

Cinfhen Dani Shapiro mentions that her personality type is INFJ,(which happens to be mine as well) but what I didn‘t know, which Dani Shapiro shared is less than 1% of the population has those traits. So I guess I really do feel a connection to this author @Crazeedi @TrishB @Tanisha_A @rohit_sawant @BarbaraBB @LauraBeth @Cathythoughts @Insightsintobooks 5y

LauraBeth INFJs are very rare! I‘m glad you felt a connection with her because when I read it, I was like - “Oh Cindy should read this!” 😂 5y

Insightsintobooks @Cinfhen oh interesting, I'm an INJF as well. 5y

Cinfhen You did say that @LauraBeth !!!! That‘s crazzzzy @Insightsintobooks less than 1% what are the odds!!?!?!? Amazing 5y

Cinfhen Wait @Insightsintobooks I‘m INFJ not INJF 5y

LeahBergen I‘m INFJ, too. 🤔 5y

Lmstraubie @Cinfhen Now you need to read

Hourglass: Time, Memory, Marriage

LauraBeth Oooh - thanks! @Lmstraubie 5y

LauraBeth @LeahBergen I think that the presence of multiple INFJs on Litsy proves what a special group this is — it‘s like a one percenters club 😀 Except for me - I‘m an ENFP - common folk! 5y

Cinfhen Thanks for sharing @Lmstraubie will listen tomorrow. I love this INFJ club @LeahBergen 🥰and you‘re definitely in the one percent club @LauraBeth 😘 5y

Crazeedi @Cinfhen I really don't even remember what I was when I took that test way back when... 5y

Crazeedi @Lmstraubie 👍😊 5y

Blaire @leahbergen @cinfhen im an INFJ too!!! 😍😍😍@insightintobooks 5y

Blaire And I only have about two weeks left on the waitlist for this book. 5y

TNbookworm Great review! 5y

Lmstraubie @Cinfhen @LauraBeth @LeahBergen How does one discover their secret letter code?? 5y

LauraBeth @Lmstraubie you can find out by taking a Myers-Briggs test! I had to take one for work that took forever but I‘ve also done the free ones online and have gotten the same result. Same for the husband - he took a more detailed one for work and it matches up the same as the free ones online. https://www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test 5y

Lmstraubie @LauraBeth Thank you 😘 5y

Cinfhen Thanks @TNbookworm it‘s rare when I feel such a connection to an author or a story. It was a feeling of validation in some sense. I can‘t wait to hear your thoughts @Blaire ~ I feel like this book will speak to you as well. 5y

Cinfhen Share your results @Lmstraubie I wouldn‘t be surprised if you fell into the 1% club too 😘😘😘😘 5y

Lmstraubie @Cinfhen Nope I'm an ISFJ-T 😊 5y

Cinfhen Totally makes sense @Lmstraubie kindness & harmony are their known traits!!! 5y

Lmstraubie @Cinfhen You are too sweet. I'm still new to this and have some reading to do. It's quite interesting. (I'm not even sure what the letters stand for lol) 5y

Cinfhen @Blaire @4thhouseontheleft I was able to send the book to you via email through audible XX let me know if it worked 5y

Blaire @Cinfhen thank you so much!!! It did come through. I am really looking forward to listening to it. 😍😍😍 5y

alisiakae @Cinfhen That is so sweet and kind of you!! Thank you!! I did get the email, and will try it out just as soon as I download the Audible app. 💕💕💕 5y

Cinfhen Yay!!! I hope you enjoy @4thhouseontheleft @Blaire 😘😘 5y

Insightsintobooks @Cinfhen I typed it wrong, I meant INFJ, I'm really enjoying This audiobook, Thank you!! 5y

The Hearts We Sold | Emily Lloyd-Jones

I consider it a blessing when I am able to lose myself in a book. It sadly doesn't happen all too often anymore. So far, this has kept my attention pretty well!
