Y by Marjorie Celona
3.0

A heartbreaking yet also heartwarming story of a girl growing up and trying to figure out how she fits in the world. As a newborn she was abandoned by her mother at a YMCA. In the novel we learn how she grows up and how her mother came to leave her the morning she was born.

At times a bit gritty with a peek into society I've gladly not experienced. It's also so honest feeling and while some of the main characters choices may make you cringe you also rejoice when she makes good choices.
