sad fast-paced

Less a coming-of-age story and more a diary about growing up in poverty.   These kind of stories are not my jam and I should probably stop reading them.

adventurous challenging emotional funny hopeful inspiring relaxing sad medium-paced

4.5

I really enjoyed the storytelling of the author and her narration of her own dysfunctional family's story, I feel like it really added depth to her memoir. I wouldn't wish her childhood on anyone, that's for sure. The ending felt a little like a sizzle out but I'm not bothered.
