📒Before We Were Yours ✍ Lisa Wingate
✏Before We Were Yours Book Summary : THE BLOCKBUSTER HIT—A New York Times, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, and Publishers Weekly Bestseller For readers of Orphan Train and The Nightingale comes a “thought-provoking [and] complex tale about two families, two generations apart . . . based on a notorious true-life scandal.”* Memphis, 1939. Twelve-year-old Rill Foss and her four younger siblings live a magical life aboard their family’s Mississippi River shantyboat. But when their father must rush their mother to the hospital one stormy night, Rill is left in charge—until strangers arrive in force. Wrenched from all that is familiar and thrown into a Tennessee Children’s Home Society orphanage, the Foss children are assured that they will soon be returned to their parents—but they quickly realize the dark truth. At the mercy of the facility’s cruel director, Rill fights to keep her sisters and brother together in a world of danger and uncertainty. Aiken, South Carolina, present day. Born into wealth and privilege, Avery Stafford seems to have it all: a successful career as a federal prosecutor, a handsome fiancé, and a lavish wedding on the horizon. But when Avery returns home to help her father weather a health crisis, a chance encounter leaves her with uncomfortable questions and compels her to take a journey through her family’s long-hidden history, on a path that will ultimately lead either to devastation or to redemption. Based on one of America’s most notorious real-life scandals—in which Georgia Tann, director of a Memphis-based adoption organization, kidnapped and sold poor children to wealthy families all over the country—Lisa Wingate’s riveting, wrenching, and ultimately uplifting tale reminds us how, even though the paths we take can lead to many places, the heart never forgets where we belong. *Library Journal Publishers Weekly’s #3 Longest-Running Bestseller of 2017 • Winner of the Southern Book Prize • If All Arkansas Read the Same Book Selection “A [story] of a family lost and found . . . a poignant, engrossing tale about sibling love and the toll of secrets.”—People “Sure to be one of the most compelling books you pick up this year. . . . Wingate is a master-storyteller, and you’ll find yourself pulled along as she reveals the wake of terror and heartache that is Georgia Tann’s legacy.”—Parade

✏Summary Book Summary : Summary & Analysiz of Before We Were Yours by Lisa Wingate Disclaimer: This is a summary, review of the book Before We Were Yours and not the original book. You can find the original here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0425284689 ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK: Before We Were Yours weaves a compelling tale of politics, scandal, adoption, and love, spanning the years from 1939 to modern times. Vulnerable yet ultimately strong Southern female characters who come from several generations hold the story together, and the mystery behind how their lives intertwine keeps the reader turning pages. Although elements slowly unfurl and leave the reader questioning and perhaps solving part of the mystery, it is not until the very end that all aspects are brought to a satisfying and emotional conclusion. Former journalist and now multiple bestselling novelist Lisa Wingate turns truthful and painful historical events into a novel that explores love and family in an intriguing way, while paying tribute to the unfortunate children and their parents who suffered through this scandalous and dark time in American adoption.
