This memoir is beautifully written and smooth. Despite the very intense and deeply vulnerable narrative, it's also extremely easy to read; had I not left for a trip, I would have finished this in less than two days. Ford's story is well-worth knowing.
Touching and honest memoir on Ashley C. Ford's childhood, growing up with an incarcerated father and an emotionally absent (and often physically abusive) mother. I consumed this as an audiobook, and Ford as a narrator did not disappoint.
I was originally going to give this a 4/5 but it's been a week since I finished reading it and I already started to forget some of the things I read in this book... which probably means it wasn't as memorable for me? 3/5 it is!
