The Open Book: A Family Memoir of Adventure, Trauma, and Resilience

Rate this book
The Open Book is a powerful true story narrated by three strong women seeking to understand and make meaning of their shared past. In this collective memoir, alternating voices are woven together to provide a unique portrait of one family’s experience from multiple perspectives.

This epic story is beautifully told, heartbreakingly honest, and inspiring. It follows a mother and her two daughters from their family’s origin building an off-grid jungle homestead in Belize, Central America through their return to the United States, the disintegration of their family, and their search for authenticity, meaning, and happiness in their adult lives. The women face many challenges including natural disasters, addiction, and sexual abuse, but ultimately theirs is an uplifting tale of love, resilience, and transformation.
