Unraveling Adoption is a raw, honest, and deeply personal memoir that exposes the hidden layers of adoption-the love, the loss, and the lifelong search for identity.
Adopted as an infant in what was promised to be an open adoption, Kristina Richie grew up cut off from her biological family, carrying unanswered questions and silent wounds. At 14, everything changed when her birth mother showed up unannounced. By 16, Kristina fought in court for the right to choose her own family, a decision that forever altered her life's path.
With unflinching vulnerability, Kristina shares her journey through secrecy, betrayal, identity struggles, and the generational trauma adoption can carry. But this is not just a story of pain-it is also a story of faith, resilience, and the power of reclaiming your voice.
Whether you are an adoptee, adoptive parent, foster youth, or simply someone who values stories of transformation and healing, Unraveling Adoption offers hope, validation, and a reminder that we are more than the stories written for us-we can write our own.
