Maid: Hard Work, Low Pay, and a Mother's Will to Survive by Stephanie Land
35 reviews
siobhanward's review against another edition
3.5
While I was definitely frustrated with Land's decisions at times, I'll also say that I'm really not someone who can judge, having never been in her position. I will say that my critique of the book is a bit more to do with how things were sometimes laid out (some things got rushed through while others felt dragged out), but the book was solid and Land told her story in a really interesting way.
Moderate: Domestic abuse, Emotional abuse, Car accident, and Toxic relationship

I appreciate that the author was honest about her experience and choices; some of the reviewers got pretty heated about this. You may not make the same choices in the same situation, and that's ok, you are in fact... different people!
Can hard relate to when she just wanted enough in the bank to be able to buy fresh fruit. I don't miss those days.
