Danielle recounts her childhood in this incredibly captivating novel. She takes us through her upbringing and runs through so many emotions and stories of her life. I really, really loved this book, despite the difficult and sad parts. I don’t really feel like my review will do it much justice so I’ll leave it at this: please read it. You’ll love it. 

TW:

(Unless you cannot/don’t want to read anything about molestation. Then you may want to skip this one.)

Great memoir- written by one of my favorite podcasters. Henderson delivers her unique upbringing in and out of her mother and grandmothers’ houses.
