A Brief Chapter in My Impossible Life by Dana Reinhardt
I should start off by saying that I listened to this on CD. I’m not a big audio books listener. My mind tends to wander, and I want to actually read the book and hold it in my hands. So this was an interesting experience.
Simone has a great family and some great friends. She is also adopted. When she is 16, her birth mother who has long been in contact with her parents, has asked to speak with Simone. At first she resists, but eventually curiosity overwhelms her and she makes the call.
At the same time she has started to notice Zach at school. But he has a “just friends” girlfriend. What follows is a great story about family and friendships, religious beliefs, and love’s first kiss.
I thoroughly enjoyed the story, and it was surprisingly fun to listen to. The narrator did a great job, making herself sound like the main character. It was fun to listen to. I wonder how it would be to read it instead?
