You’d Be Home Now by Kathleen Glasgow
The young adult book "You'd Be Home Now" was written by Kathleen Glasgow. Emory, a high school senior who has spent the majority of her life in and out of foster care, is the protagonist of the book. Emory makes the decision to leave her community and set out on a search for her birth mother after being expelled from her most recent foster family. She encounters a gang of outcasts along the journey, and they end up becoming her adopted family and support system as she faces the difficulties of living on the road. In the novel, Emory learns to accept her past and look forward to her future as it examines issues of identity, belonging, and the value of human connection. "You'd Be Home Now" is a touching book that realistically depicts the challenges that many young kids in the foster care system go through.
