Here's a book I read a few weeks ago.....I really enjoyed it. Just when I say maybe memoirs are not for me I read a really good one. The authors, Claire & Mia Fontaine, who are mother and daughter talk about their journey or struggles through Mia's childhood. It was very powerful and intense. It was so surprising that Mia went from honor student to living on the streets and doing drugs. I loved the honesty and bits of humor thrown in. But mostly it was the mother's desperate fight to save her daughter. She truly traveled the ends of the earth to try and save her. And what an amazing bond they share. Beautiful....
