This is an inspiring story

This story goes to show just how resilient we can be as humans. This person went through a lot at an early age and it really is so powerful for her to share her story. It goes to show just how strong we are as humans.

Enjoyed it very much

Heartfelt and easy to connect with. The story moves from early loss to a steady, hard-earned sense of self, without feeling preachy or performative. The adoption angle and identity search feel real, especially in the messy family moments. It’s ultimately hopeful—more about healing forward than perfect answers.

Interesting story with emotions

I liked this journey and how was founded and how she progressed. When I was hearing the narrator and felt inside the scene. LOL, including the name was stranger for her. I never thought all those sentiments of why that happened to her and the absent of answer she did peace.

Power of a personal story

I was looking for something meaningful to listen to during my travels and this memoir turned out to be the perfect choice. The focus stays right on the internal battle of finding one's identity amidst a chaotic upbringing, which kept me engaged through every hour. It is a very grounded story that offers a look at a real life filled with both shadows and light. Seeing the transformation from a lost child to a resilient adult is incredibly satisfying when you hear it described in such detail. Anyone looking for a story about the human spirit will enjoy this.

The story held my attention

The writing feels personal.
I felt invited into her experience, not told what to think.

This book fits readers interested in adoption stories, identity, and faith.
