Fingerprintz: One Woman's Journey Through Loss, Love, and Very Little Babies

A candid look at the challenges, losses, and hard choices women face as they juggle work, relationships, and motherhood. In this stirring memoir, Lisa Printz Roday begins her narrative with the sudden death of her forty-seven-year-old father. Rather than crush the twenty-one-year-old Printz Roday, it is the pivotal moment that sustains her in each new crisis she faces, including two harrowing preterm births.

With remarkable candor, a little dry humor, and plenty of heart, Printz Roday explores how the experiences that shake us to our core can make us stronger than we could ever imagine. She teaches us that grief, however heavy, can give way to grit and determination, fill us with a deep sense of gratitude, and soften and shape us. No matter where you are in your journey, this book will inspire you to stay the course to a place of light.
