Angie Lara Inheritance is such a lovely written book and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. It is written by Dani Shapiro, she takes a DNA test and discovers that she was not 100% Jewish as she had previously believed. Though both of her parents are dead, she decides to research her family history. Which leads her all the way back to the 1960s, when artificial insemination had begun picking up. She uncovers many crazy and wild stories which led to her conception. Throughout the memoir, Shapiro touches on medical ethics, family dynamics, and so much more. This is such a thought-provoking and heartfelt book that I’d recommend just about anybody to read about it. I rate this book ⅘ stars.


Shane DM I wholeheartedly agree about Inheritance. So good. Good enough to make me buy some of her other stuff
