The Other F-Word

Author: Natasha Friend
Publisher: Farrar, Straus, and Giroux
Release Date: March 17, 2017

Goodreads:

A fresh, humorous, and timely YA novel about two teens conceived via in vitro fertilization who go in search for answers about their donor.

Milo has two great moms, but he's never known what it's like to have a dad. When Milo's doctor suggests asking his biological father to undergo genetic testing to shed some light on Milo's extreme allergies, he realizes this is a golden opportunity to find the man he's always wondered about.

Hollis's mom Leigh hasn't been the same since her other mom, Pam, passed away seven years ago. But suddenly, Leigh seems happy—giddy, even—by the thought of reconnecting with Hollis's half-brother Milo. Hollis and Milo were conceived using the same sperm donor. They met once, years ago, before Pam died.

Now Milo has reached out to Hollis to help him find their donor. Along the way, they locate three other donor siblings, and they discover the true meaning of the other F-word: family.

Why I'm Excited:
This cover really caught my eye. I love it. This sounds fun. I don't think I've read any novels about finding the sperm donor. Contemps are my go-to, and I love when they don't focus on a love story. I'll definitely be keeping my eyes out for this one.

Oooh, I hadn't heard of this one before. Sounds really good. And that cover is super cute. I'll have to keep my eye out for this one. Thanks for the heads-up!

Hello, there! Thanks for taking the time to comment. I read each and every one and will do my best to respond--usually on your blog instead of on mine. I will, however, always answer direct questions. Due to serious time restraints, this blog is now an award free zone, but I appreciate the thought!
