Andrea Jones-Pierre
Raised by a mother who turned to drugs to relieve past pain, Valencia had to grow up fast. Being welcomed by gangs, being shunned by her family, and finding motherhood early should have sealed Valencia's fate, at least according to all the statistics.
Open, honest, and often raw, Motherless Child exposes a falsehood far too many of us have been led to believe - that those raised in addiction will fall victim themselves.
Instead, she found an inner strength born of determination, resolve, and forgiveness.
Her heart-wrenching story unfolds through glimpses of her own life and recollections of her mother, a woman she never knew till long after her death. Raw, poignant, and brutally honest, Motherless Child steps into the void and reveals the hope, and forgiveness, the data ignores.

Valencia is an inspiration, through telling her story she shows that you can go through a lot of adversity and come out the end a whole and good person. Her strength is amazing and I'm grateful to have the opportunity to learn about her life.
The narration is excellent, the accents are really well done and the delivery helped to draw me into the story.

Andrea Jones-Pierre did a good job with the narration. She was very easy to understand and read with a good cadence. She did a good job setting the scene and differentiated the various characters voices, both male and female, well. I'd listen to other performances of her in the future, no problem. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher for an honest review.

Having said that, this review is not a reflection on the hardships the author had to endure and overcome, but simply a review of her work, It also needs to be said that the narrator, Andrea Jones-Pierre, did a fine job with the various voices from the street language to the male voices, she seemed to nail them all; truly a case where the narrator sets the scene very well. Although I found this particular story to be about a "middle of the road" rating, I would recommend it to anyone that has not read or listened to a woman's story around the topics covered in the work. Certainly a story that needs to be told, I look forward to the day when there are not so many of them needing to be told. God speed . . .
