Publisher's Summary

"A Place Called There" is a captivating memoir that chronicles Gia's journey from adoption to a quest for identity, set against the backdrop of her remarkable life and the familial bonds that define it.

Born in New Orleans and raised in Houston by loving adoptive parents, Gia's life is filled with experiences that range from the ordinary to the extraordinary. From her early childhood memories to her adventures at Carnegie Mellon University, where she meets her future husband, Andy, the story navigates through her challenges, successes, and the pursuit of personal discovery.

The narrative takes a pivotal turn with the birth of Gia's daughters, prompting her to seek out her biological roots. This exploration is about tracing her lineage and understanding the genetic medical history that impacts her and her children's lives.

Gia's story is a testament to the power of perseverance, the importance of knowing one's origins, and the unbreakable ties of biological and chosen family. It's a heartfelt reflection on identity, motherhood, and the lengths we go to for the ones we love, making it a compelling listen for anyone who has ever pondered their place in the world.
