The main character in this true story is a girl named Ashley. She is the oldest of 4 kids biologically and the youngest out of 2 when adopted. The main problem in this story it that Ashley has been in 14 different foster homes during her life and when she begins 8th grade she finally finds a couple who want to adopt and they eventually adopt Ashley. In some of the foster home that she lived in were abusive and not eligible to keep kids in the home. Ashley had a brother named Luke who was younger and was in the same boat as she was. She also had a baby brother who died when he was only forty-eight days old. She was put in foster care because her mother was caught doing drugs and the boyfriend was abusive. I did not read this book on audio. I would suggest other people to read this book on audio because it is a confusing book and you will get lost during it. I sort of liked the book even though it was confusing in some parts, because it was interesting to hear about what she had to put up with. Ashley Rhodes- Courter (the author) has in fact written another book and it is New York Times bestselling author. It is called “The Women Who Raised Me”. It is another memoir.
“Reviewed By: Melanie M.”
