Unearthing by Kyo Maclear

Unearthing by Kyo Maclear


Three months after Kyo Maclear’s father dies in December 2018, she gets the results of a DNA test showing that she and the father who raised her are not biologically related. Suddenly Maclear becomes a detective in her own life, unraveling a family mystery piece by piece, and assembling the story of her biological father. Along the way, larger questions arise: What exactly is kinship? What does it mean to be a family? And how do we belong to larger ecosystems?

My Thoughts:

This is Kyo Maclear’s story about her life and how it all changed when she had some results of a DNA test done. Kyo finds out something that she never would of expected. And this is the story about how she overcame these obstacles. It is a thought provoking read and I really felt for Kyo at times. It was a very moving and powerful read that I would recommend reading. It was great.

I received an ARC copy of this book for an honest review.
