challenging emotional hopeful reflective sad tense medium-paced

Memoir is one of my favorite genres and I absolutely love when I get so invested in the person that I cannot stop reading. This was one of those those memoirs. Julie told her story in such a captivating way and often left a cliffhanger at the end of each chapter so I just had to read one more… but it was never just one more. As a child of the 70s and 80s I loved all the details of that time period that made it feel nostalgic. This is the prequel to Julie’s first memoir TWICE A DAUGHTER, and I’ve already checked it out and can’t wait to read the rest of her story. Highly recommend!
