Brand new but has a couple of minor imperfections as shown.
"Sweet, but not Pretty"
Those four simple words eat at the heart of my self-esteem. They somehow set the tone, confirmation that I was second-hand, not good enough to keep. The process of adoption absolves the state from the financial burden of my care. Thus, the stroke of a pen, and a rubber stamp tears me from my history and sets me on this path of loss.
Sweet, but not Pretty is my personal experience of being adopted, showing the challenges and prejudices I've faced, and ultimately how I made my way through.
I hope the experiences in this book can help others as they navigate their own adoption journeys.

Great value for money, love the yarn, beautiful quality. Prompt courier.

Wonderful novel. One to dip into time and again.
Also very good experience ordering from this site, prompt delivery, nicely packaged. Recommend both seller and novella.

Great moisturizer, feels great on skin.

Perfect for light clothes I don't think they would handle heavy stuff.
