The Doughnut Club
In this heartfelt and honest debut middle-grade novel, twelve-year-old Quinn seeks out her donor siblings, wondering if she will fit in better with them than she does with her own family.
Quinn loves her moms and little brother, but she often feels like the odd one out. She would much rather be quietly drawing than surfing or rock-climbing or whatever other intense activity her family is currently obsessed with.
Quinn has always known she is donor conceived. She's never been that interested in knowing about her donor. But when her moms tell her that she and her brother have sixteen other genetic siblings, her mind is blown. Maybe one of them will be more like her!
The only problem is her parents want her to wait until they are older to contact any of them. When Quinn goes behind their backs to find out more, she starts to lose sight of what is really important, especially when she starts to suspect her worst enemy - the dreaded Monika - might be one of her siblings. Can she find a way back to her family, while finding a way to tell them how she really feels?
