Rynn's birth mother gave her the name "Scheherazade," although her adoptive parents changed it. She was born with a hole in her heart, and she feels the hole in her life from not knowing her birth family. She has an okay relationship with her adoptive father, and a not great one with her adoptive mother. They live on a garlic farm in central Maine (somewhere outside of Pittsfield, if my Maine geography guess is correct), and Rynn has a few friends and gets a job babysitting during the summer. She finds a way to find her birth family, and makes decisions on what to do with that information. 

Things I liked about this book: the complicated look at adoption it provides. It shows both the good sides and the bad sides, and all the complicated feelings around it.
Things I disliked: There's one twist that just felt too easy. To say more is a giant spoiler, but for me, if you don't buy that twist, there's a lot you have to take on faith afterward.
