Kristi's Reviews > The Many Lives of Mama Love: A Memoir of Lying, Stealing, Writing, and Healing

This book was beautiful and emotional and anxiety ridden. I easily finished this book in less than three days; I just couldn't put it down. There were things I learned, things were just downright frustrating, things that made me have hope in humanity. Did she repeat some things...kind of alot (which usually drives me nuts)? Yes, she did. I guess because I was so in to the book, I didn't care. I loved her story. I do think she needs more therapy just for herself. I wished she talked more about herself growing up. I feel like there was missing information there that maybe helped me understand her more. I have throughout the years changed my opinion on how I think prisons should be run, and this kind of gave me the ammo on what we need to make better citizens in the long run. Sadly, she touches on why, and it's also because politicians can run on a broken system. I really do recommend this book. She also gave me books that I've adde to my TBR.
