All You Can Ever Know

I loved this and I wish it had been even longer - I tried to read it more slowly but before I knew it I had finished. I'm neither an adoptee nor an adoptive parent, but I am a parent (which is still weird to say!) and the theme of parenthood forcing you to reflect on who you are and what you want your children to inherit from you really resonated with me, especially as we're raising a boy in this incredibly toxic culture. Nicole writes so beautifully and with such clarity that I really felt that I was with her on every step of her journey to discover her birth family. I can't wait to read the next thing she writes, whether memoir, fiction, or anything else!
