The Me I Used To Be (Next Tall)

Helpful Score: 1


Excellent story -- 16 yr old Allyson places her newborn for adoption and lives with the doubts and longing. At age 51 her unknown 16 yr old grandson shows up on her doorstep. That begins a journey of discovery for Allyson, her grandson and eventually her once teenage boyfriend. Well-crafted and believable story with sensitivity, self-discovery, humor and compassion.
