“Brooke Beyfuss has crafted a beautiful book that ultimately fosters hope founded on the belief that paths can be found to guide us away from even the darkest of pasts. An excellent read that is sure to be a favorite book club pick.” – Rebecca Taylor, author of The Secret Next Door
“Brooke Beyfuss’s After We Were Stolen kept me feverishly turning pages, anxious and eager to find out what happened to Avery and Cole as they emerge from a life they never asked for and into one they’re totally unprepared to navigate.” – Melanie Abrams, author of Meadowlark
“Not a typical cult novel…Despite Avery’s clear trauma and struggle for closure, her voice is strong and clear.” – Booklist
“This heartbreaking novel depicts a young woman’s resilience amid abuse and a life of lies. Avery’s voice resonates…Powerful and moving…Filled with bewilderment and highly expressive, the conclusion is surprising yet realized.” – New York Journal of Books
