Around the Way Girl by Taraji P. Henson
4.0

Around the Way Girl was fire and you can imagine her voice in this book, even without the audio accompaniment (although I do suggest getting it as she narrates).  I also listened to the narration and felt it was choppy throughout (editing). Taraji told her story with sass and class.  I learned so many things I did not know about her.  I loved she spoke about the racism in Hollywood, the stigma of single motherhood, and was vulnerable about although she loved her dad, he had some serious faults.  Great book.
