Reseñas de la Crítica

"A tale of grit told with brutal honesty and a hefty dose of humor by the woman who lived it." ~ Angela Duckworth, author of "Grit", Professor, University of Pennsylvania

The honesty

This book is better read like any other teenager who was trying to find their way in this world. I wouldn’t recommend for adult reading. Maybe it would better suit a kid who is starting to experiment with drugs/alcohol.
