challenging emotional hopeful inspiring medium-paced

4.25

A truthful and raw memoir that is a rollercoaster to read but well worth the life lessons and inspiration by the end. Found myself taking a break due to some difficult themes but towards the end I couldn’t put it down. I can see why many return to read this book again years later.

challenging dark emotional funny hopeful inspiring slow-paced

5.0

This memoir was full of emotion, hope and truth. Some parts were very intense and others were just downright terrible to read. But this book is incredible! Cupcake's story is so inspirational her journey through trauma, addiction, recovery and finding her higher power are a book I would recommend to anyone!

+5 for readability and entertainment. Possibly glamorizes/simplifies gang life and the process of getting out.
