I was completely blown away by this powerful and heart-wrenching story about family, love, perseverance, and loss!

This novel was inspired by the horrifying true events of the Tennessee Children’s Home Society, run by Georgia Tann from the 1920’s-1950’s. The plot is written from two points of view, weaving between past and present, this is the story of how one family’s past has shaped its present. Lisa Wingate’s writing is absolutely flawless. She pulls you deep into the lives of each character where you feel like you are inside the novel witnessing all these heinous events up close.

Before We Were Yours is one of the best historical fiction books I have read to date, it will definitely stay with me for a very long time. Highly recommend!

Wow, am I glad this this is a complete series. The ending is a cliffhanger so I have already downloaded the final book but thought I would quickly review before reading it.

The story really continues to grow in this book with both Elder and Pim being honest about their lives and feelings.

There are some emotional scenes in this book and one in particular made me cry, this is very rare, I am not a crier.

I still can not recommend this series enough, once you get past the darker content, mainly book one, then it is truly amazing. I love the way both characters are so really with faults and problems and stuff to deal with, however they try to see past that to each other.
