An honest, riveting, inspiring story about what it means to love others and yourself. Ms. Tina takes you on a journey in her Memoir spanning multiple generations to present day. Her life moments set in the context of the American landscape through the years. I personally loved learning about her childhood and her relationship with her Nephew and soulmate Johnny.
