The Ugly Cry by Danielle Henderson

5.0

This moving and challenging audiobook memoir, wonderfully read by the author herself, is a wonderful testament to the spirit of a little girl who overcomes abuse from her mother’s boyfriend and the hard love of her grandmother. This makes it sound a bit of a downer but it’s frequently very funny and uplifting too. The author started the Feminist Ryan Gosling website so that should give you an idea of the intelligent and irreverent tone of the book, which is cut through with understated descriptions of the abuse she suffered.
