Maggie is a mother to a stroppy teenager, a wife to a befuddled husband, and a daughter to two very different women. She has always known she’s adopted, but has she ever understood what that means? Not really. Following the death of her mother, Maggie finally feels able to go in search of her birth mother Morag, and heads to the Highlands of Scotland with her disgruntled daughter Roxie in tow, leaving her crumbling marriage to worry about another day. The family reunion is bittersweet, but everything is blown wide open when Roxie unearths Morag’s explosive teenage diaries. Why did Morag give Maggie away? What really happened all those years ago, and how have the echoes of the past resounded through the generations, like ripples in a puddle? And when all the secrets and promises are out in the open, will Maggie finally have an answer to the question – who do you think you are Maggie Pink?Purchase Links

Thank you to Rachel's Random Resources and the author for having me on this blog tour and my gifted copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions expressed in this review are my own.
Maggie Pink was placed up for adoption at birth. When she finds herself with both parents gone and a not so great relationship with her own daughter, Maggie decides to explore her roots and find her birth mom. Secrets are revealed and betrayals are uncovered. Can Maggie finally fix what is broken in her life or will everything completely fall apart for good?
This was such an enjoyable read for me. I felt like I got to know and connect with all the important characters on a personal level. Getting to hear their backstories and finding out what made them who they are really added depth and understanding to each one of them. The story itself was enjoyable and realistic. The pacing was perfect keeping the story moving steadily without information dumping or dragging. I was completely captured into the story and wrapped up in the characters. Reading this book was simply a wonderful experience.
There is a lot of heavy content and generational trauma in this book. I think the author did a great job at fleshing out these characters and their individual struggles. The story is heartwarming and bittersweet. If you're looking for a book to touch your heart and leave you feeling satisfied this is certainly a good option.
