Book Overview
An "engrossing debut" novel (Laura Dave, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Thing He Told Me) about a couple whose dreams of adoption push them to do the unthinkable when their baby's birth family steps into the picture. HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO TO SAVE YOUR FAMILY? As soon as Gail and Jon Durbin bring home their adopted baby Maya, she becomes the glue that mends their fractured marriage. But the Durbin's social worker, Paige, can't find the teenage birth mother to sign the consent forms. By law, Carli has seventy-two hours to change her mind. Without her signature, the adoption will unravel. Carli is desperate to pursue her dreams, so giving her baby a life with the Durbins seems like the right choice--until her own mother throws down an ultimatum. Soon Carli realizes how few choices she has. As the hours tick by, Paige knows that the Durbins' marriage won't survive the loss of Maya, but everyone's life is shattered when they--and baby Maya--disappear without a trace. Filled with heartrending turns, Other People's Children is a riveting page-turner you'll find impossible to put down.

Women's Fiction
Published by TinaLovesToRead , 3 years ago
This is a Contemporary/Women's Fiction . We follow a lot of different characters, but the storyline flows very well even with switching through the different characters point of views. I have to say if you are going through an adoption then this may not be the book for you. I loved that this book so all sides of an adoption. This book is so well written, and I loved the characters in this book. The ending was just ok, but the middle was everything. I receive an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.
