Book Review of The Girls Who Went Away : The Hidden History of Women Who Surrendered Children for Adoption in the Decades Before Roe v. Wade

reviewed on
Helpful Score: 2


I absolutely loved and enjoyed this book, from front to cover - and it's hard for me to stay interested in a book. I read it over the course of about 3 months and every time I picked it back up, I got back into it.

The author did an extraordinary job of researching, personal stories and just the way society was back then - which lead to millions of adoptions all because of pressure... Amazing book - I suggest this to every one - including my husband :)

PS: THIS BOOK HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ABORTION (OR ROE VS. WADE DEBATE)
