Book Review of The Waiting: The True Story of a Lost Child, a Lifetime of Longing, and a Miracle for a Mother Who Never Gave Up



This is the true story of Minka, who was raped as a teenager, gave her baby daughter up for adoption, then prayed to be reunited with her 77 years later. It was written by Minka's granddaughter. I thought that the book was very good and interesting, both the storyline and the photos. It was not an easy book to read, and was at times sad, but I'm glad that I read it.
