“Cynthia Hand is a master at pulling your heart out. The How & the Why tells both sides of an adoption story with love, compassion, and care.” (Brigid Kemmerer, New York Times bestselling author of Letters to the Dead)
An in-depth exploration of family and relationships, from New York Times bestselling author Cynthia Hand.
Cassandra McMurtrey has the best parents a girl could ask for; they gave Cass a life she wouldn’t trade for the world. She has everything she needs – but she also has questions. Like, to know who she is. Where’s she from. Questions that her adoptive parents couldn’t answer, no matter how much they loved her.
But 18 years ago, someone wrote Cass a series of letters. And they may hold the answer Cass is looking for.
Alternating between Cass’s quest for answers and letters from the pregnant teenage girl who put her up for adoption, this emotional resounding story is perfect for those Nina LaCour and Jandy Nelson fans.
I listened to the whole thing and enjoyed it a lot. Parts of it were slightly slow but I’m glad I finished it
