When We Become Ours: A YA Adoptee Anthology by Nicole Chung, Shannon Gibney
5.0

(Disclaimer: I received this book from the publisher. This has not impacted my review which is unbiased and honest.) 

As a transracial adoptee, there was no way I was not going to read When We Became Ours. This anthology means more to me than words. Growing up I never saw stories about adopted kids. This anthology soothes a wound I didn't have words for until now. In this genre bending anthology, these fellow adoptees navigate feelings of family and belonging. Of growing up as a person of color and feeling that as something familiar and foreign in faces on the streets like us.
