rmannion 's review for:
Lady Sings the Blues
by Billie Holiday
informative
inspiring
reflective
sad
medium-paced
Billie's narrative voice is clear and endearing and allows the reader to feel like they are really being spoken to by Lady Day. Furthermore, she sprinkles the largely harrowing story of her short life with lots of universal life lessons and political criticism, making her writing feel purposeful and relevant.
