The Pretty One: On Life, Pop Culture, Disability, and Other Reasons to Fall in Love with Me by Keah Brown
4.0
Read this as an attempt to try to expand my perspective. The author reads the audiobook, and is a great reader. I appreciated the stories and was able to connect to the author's view points.
I felt really old reading this. I kept thinking that Keah needs to write a book a few years down the road, because it's clear that she still has a lot of growing and learning to do in her life. But it's not really a memoir about someone at the end of their life or peak of their success, is a book honoring who she is, and why we should care about her (and black disabled people) now.
I wish the author the best, and hope she's able to continue on her momentum.
