A story about two couples, worlds apart, but connected - a mother in India forced to give her newborn daughter up, and an Indian-American couple struggling with infertility who adopt this daughter. I learned a lot more about Indian culture, especially the struggles of women. This book also touches on the struggles of adoption, from the process to the emotional turmoil an adopted child might go through. It was definitely a book I barely put down because I was so invested in the story, especially when Asha (the daugther) goes back to India as a teenager to try to figure out where her biological parents came from. The only thing this book lacked for me was the depth and because of that, it was hard for me to build up an emotional connection of the story. And the behavior and thoughts of Somer (the American mother) felt very irrational to me, as I never read about her reasoning or motivations.
