Winner of the Reader's Favorite Gold Medal!
A True American Family Saga

Can we learn from our ancestors? Do our relatives' behaviors help shape our own?

In "Unexpected Gifts" that is precisely what happens to Sonia, a confused college student, heading for addictions and forever choosing the wrong man. Searching for answers, she begins to read her family's diaries and journals from America's past: the Vietnam War, Woodstock, and Timothy Leary era; Tupperware parties, McCarthyism, and Black Power; the Great Depression, dance marathons, and Eleanor Roosevelt; the immigrant experience and the Suffragists.

Digging Into Her Family's Past Will Save Her Future

Back and forth the book journeys, linking yesteryear with modern life until finally, by understanding her ancestors' hardships and faults, she gains enough clarity to make some right choices.

In this unforgettable tale S.R. Mallery takes the reader on an epic journey through the 20th century's most iconic periods.
