Rowan Kelly knows she’s lucky. After all, if she hadn’t been adopted, she could have spent her days in a rice paddy, or a windowless warehouse assembling iPhones - they make iPhones in Korea, right? Either way, slowly dying of boredom on Long Island is surely better than the alternative. But as she matures, she realizes that she’ll never know if she has her mother’s eyes, or if she’d be in America at all had her adoptive parents been able to conceive.

Rowan sets out to prove that she can be someone’s first choice. After running away from home - and her parents’ rules - and ending up beaten, barefoot, and topless on a Pennsylvania street courtesy of Bad Boy Number One, Rowan attaches herself to Never-Going-to-Commit. When that doesn’t work out, she fully abandons self-respect and begins browsing Craigslist personals. But as Rowan dives deeper into the world of casual encounters with strangers, she discovers what she’s really looking for.

With a fresh voice and a quick wit, Lauren J. Sharkey dispels the myths surrounding transracial adoption, the ties that bind, and what it means to belong.

Inconvenient Daughter by Lauren Sharkey is the author's debut novel which is loosely based on her actual transracial adoption experience. This story unfolds slowly and illustrates the many changes and conflicts within families with teen girls. The writing is strong. The story is told very vividly and the dialogue is completely natural. All of the story elements ring true. This is an important work for people whose lives are touched by interacial family dynamics whether or not those dynamics are related to adoption. The narration by Leslie Bellair enhances the material by presenting it in a relatable and sympathetic way. A lot of uncomfortable situations are dealt with honestly in this book. This is an important work not only because it tackles issues of race, the role of women, and access to power but also because it deals very honestly with the unique challenges of biracial families regardless of how or why they became mixed. I would recommend this to readers who struggle with otherness and also to readers who struggle with any type of process addiction. I would also recommend this book to parents, therapists, and others who care for and would like to better understand those who struggle with these issues.
