Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.Sample Book Insights: #1 I had a mother who was a widow, and I loved her. But she was a bad liar, and I could tell when she was lying to me. I loved her so much that I didn’t want to believe she was lying to me.#2 I knew something was wrong with my mother’s story, but I couldn’t figure out what. She was reluctant to talk about him, and she was afraid that if she told me the truth, I would find out that they weren’t married.#3 I would go around her apartment and page through her photo albums while she was down in our apartment building’s hot, airless laundry room. I had no idea who I was really living with, only that she transformed behind that locked door.
