At least once a month, a try to read a memoir. It’s my favorite genre. This is by far the best one I’ve read in 2025. Her story is raw and heartbreaking. I couple read this one with my chapter mate and page partner (my wife). We listened to the audiobook while we read along with physical copies.
This book will grab you from the first paragraph. It’s raw, honest, heartbreaking, gut-wrenching, and inspirational. We follow Viola Davis’ life from her impoverished childhood to her rise as an award-winning actress. The writing was amazing, and she narrated the audiobook, giving it the cherry on top. This book was incredible. I’ve always been a fan, but I now have an insane amount of respect for her. Check your triggers for this one, please.
