Flora ，

In Fostered， Tori Hope Petersen shares her experiences living with an abusive mother and also what it was like for her in the foster care system。 She writes well and offers many insights and opinions about the system。 I found the book quite engrossing at times and， as she warns her readers in the introduction， very hard to read at other times， Her faith made all the difference in the world and you can’t help but be glad for her。 Apparently， most foster kids do not often end up that way。4 stars。

I really enjoyed this memoir by Tori Petersen！ She shares openly the challenges she faced being moved around to several different foster homes over and over throughout her childhood and teenage years and the impact all of these placements had on her development into an adult and active advocate for foster families and foster children。 Through Tori's story it becomes apparent that she is a very resilient person who took the challenges of her past as opportunities to learn and grow in the future。 I really enjoyed this memoir by Tori Petersen！ She shares openly the challenges she faced being moved around to several different foster homes over and over throughout her childhood and teenage years and the impact all of these placements had on her development into an adult and active advocate for foster families and foster children。 Through Tori's story it becomes apparent that she is a very resilient person who took the challenges of her past as opportunities to learn and grow in the future。 She is clearly a success story， where many young people who had similar childhoods may find themselves down a very different path such as prison， unwanted pregnancies， poverty or addiction。 I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in memoirs， especially those related to childhood trauma and overcoming obstacles in life， as well as anyone who is particularly interested in the foster care system in the United States。 Thanks so much to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book！ 。。。more
