A review by akingston5
Somebody's Daughter by Ashley C. Ford
"When you write about you and me? Just tell the truth. Your truth. Don’t worry about nobody’s feelings, especially not mine. You gotta be tough to tell your truth, but it’s the only thing worth doing next to loving somebody."

I listened to the audiobook of this in August, and I cannot recommend it enough. Ford's memoir tells the story of her childhood and young adulthood, gently turning over relationships and individuals with honesty and grace as we understand how our early relationships with family, friends, and partners are part of the building of ourselves. It's a powerful book, and I'm grateful for Ford's vulnerability and generosity in telling her story. Pick this up, and read it!
