I’m proud to share this review of Mother Mother posted on “Adoptees With Guatemalan Roots.” As someone in my family said, after listening to me read it aloud, “This review makes me want to read the book more than a review in The New York Times.” (Although, okay, I’d take that, too.)
Benjamin Fossen writes: “The way the book touches on issues of race and identity is so realistic and it tells the story that so many people who were adopted from Guatemala experienced growing up…I finished the book in one sitting…There were many moments […] that felt so real and relatable. I highly recommend Mother Mother to anyone who is interested in learning more about adoption, and especially adoption from Guatemala.”
Thank you Ben and Adoptees With Guatemalan Roots! @guateroots
