Zhenet Aliu's Everybody Says It's Everything haunts you even when not actively reading. Adopted twins from Albania Drita and Petrit reconnect in 1999 after years of distance when Petrit's young son comes into Drita's life. A story about sorrow, regret, choices taken and those abandoned, the strength of women and found family is paramount. I LOVED THIS BOOK!
