Somebody's Daughter by Ashley C. Ford

challenging emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

A fraught relationship with her mother and a mostly-imagined relationship with her incarcerated father shape Ashley Ford’s childhood. As she endures poverty, puberty, and assault, Ashley strives to define herself on her own terms. In her elegant, unflinching debut memoir, Ford grapples with trauma, forgiveness, and love at its most complicated.
