Little Pieces of Me is an excellent novel about family where the main character finds out her dad isn’t her biological father. A DNA test reveals Paige’s biological father while she is still grieving her father. She is left questioning everything and wondering what is the truth. Paige has a difficult relationship with her mother which makes it hard for Paige to discuss her paternity. Paige ends up trying to find the truth with the help of her friends by sneaking around to trying to find out about her father and eventually meets him. The story is told from Paige’s perspective in the present day and in the past from Betsy and Andy’s perspectives. The chapter switched off between past and present in a way that made it impossible to put down this book. Paige’s mother, Elizabeth, and her college self, Betsy are very different, and I enjoyed learning what caused Betsy to change. Mark is very different in college compared to Paige’s impression of him. Andy was in a difficult situation in college but made some bad choices and didn’t handle things well. However, in the present Andy is very friendly and kind. Paige’s Aunt is a very interesting character with a lot of personality. Little Pieces of Me is an emotional read that caused me to consider what I would do if I was in Paige’s position. I felt like how Paige handled things was realistic and relatable. This book really focuses on family with Paige’s father but also with her mother. This book brings up great discussions, so I highly recommend for book clubs. I read it with LoveARCtually and we discussed Little Pieces of Me with Alison Hammer.

Thank you William Morrow and NetGalley for Little Pieces of Me.
