It is always strange to rate a memoir. What am I rating here? The story of her life? Her ability to articulate the story of her life? How much her story moved me? I think we end up with the latter most often and I know that's neither good nor bad but somewhere in a grey area. I can't imagine being brave enough to put something like this out there in the world.
