A review by bookgirl1209
Mom & Me & Mom by Maya Angelou

3.0

I listened to this being read by the author and I don't know that I would have liked it as much if I had just read it. There is something about Angelou's voice that just sweetens the pot.

The memoir was kind of all over the place - for the most part chronological but skipping here and there and not heavy on details when you kind of really need them (she was a striptease artist? what??)

What it truly is is a love letter to her mother who as Angelou says was an awful mother to young children but the best mom to a young adult and I have to admit she sound like a damn cool mom.
