Riveting. Loved it. But editor needs to know it's = it is. They spelled its wrong every time it was used as a possessive. It was never spelled its-- always it's... ugh!

Beneath a Tall Tree was a wonderful read. The author shares her journey to discovering her biological mother. I was caught up in the book before I knew it and finished in just 2 sittings. Jeans reflections and honesty carry the reader along as a friend. This book is a selection from my Feb 2011 bookclub and can't wait for discussion.
