WOW. I fully expected this book, especially the audiobook, to be completely and totally amazing, and it absolutely was. I had no idea what a rough childhood full of poverty and abuse Viola Davis endured. I cried, I laughed, I was hooked from the very first line (if you've read it, you know 😂🤌).
Update after first reread:
This is just as much a five star read the second time around 🙌 I don't often buy audiobooks or reread them, but this one felt like the perfect way to wrap up a challenge I'm doing on IG. I had forgotten about some of the details of just how rough her childhood was (that cat part like wut 😳)
