Christine Pride and Jo Piazza, who tackled race, police brutality, forgiveness and friendship in their 2021 co-author debut, “We Are Not Like Them,” are back with a new book called “You Were Always Mine.” The book examines motherhood, race and adoption at a time when 14 states have banned abortions with almost no exceptions. The writers draw from their own identities, Pride, as a Black woman with no children by choice and Piazza, a white woman with three children. Reviewer Alicia Rancilio says “You Were Always Mine” is an important, thought-provoking read that would be a great book club pick.
