I really enjoyed the audio book edition of this story. It was interesting to see the viewpoint of adoption from different aspects…the adopted child, the adoptive parents, the mother who gave up the child for adoption, the grandparents, etc. And I was pleased with how Kirby’s thoughts changed by the end of the book. Life and maturity will do that sometimes!
The author does a great job of drawing you into the story and making you become invested in the lives of the characters. Your heart will ache, you will be anxious, you will get irritated at some of the character’s behaviors…but, in the end, you find yourself cheering on for a particular ending.
I love Emily Giffin’s style of writing and am looking forward to reading/writing more of her books.
