A Piece of Cake: A Memoir by Cupcake Brown

challenging dark hopeful informative inspiring sad medium-paced

5.0

This memoir is raw, heartbreaking, inspiring, and at times hilarious. Cupcake's journey reveals many of the flaws in the family court system and foster care system of the 70s, of which I'm sure many remain today. Her story should make us all pause when we see people who are addicted to alcohol and drugs because we don't know their whole story. She discusses themes of trauma, avoiding emotions, chosen family, self-love, and forgiveness.
