Why read it?
1 author picked Where You'll Find Me as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This next book is gritty in its authenticity.

Anna has to live with her distant father, his new wife, and their baby where she doesn’t feel like part of the family.

I’m enthralled by true and complex characters in this book who represent the highs and lows of real life.
