“Authentic and honest”
This is a good book. Sonya is a survivor and an overcomer. She’s lived all the lives that most of us never have, and she shares her story beautifully. Don’t let the quirks with the language distract you, because it only makes the story more authentic. There’s truth about life and persistence and overcoming that in the end will make you very proud of Sonya and leave you wanting to know more.
