REVIEWS
This is a new kind of memoir that sheds light on issues teens and young adults deal with everyday, yet it reminds us parents just how hard and difficult it was growing up ourselves. I also love how it enlightens teens of the struggles of being a parent. By the time we realize how much our parents loved and sacrificed for us, for some of us, it’s too late. - Dana Henderson
This will definitely be one of the best biographies a teen can read and definitely for parents who are parenting teens in today’s world of confusion. - Darlene Washington (Parent of two teens)
A great mother, daughter book club selection and read for a mother struggling to reach her daughter, especially during puberty. Best memoir for women who have forgotten what it was like growing up and our mindset at 13 years old, 14 years old and even into our young adult years. - Rachel Styne
A great staple for African American women and teens. Love how real and intense the emotions are. Great storytelling. Just a great read all together. - Courtney Willams
