Memoirs often make me appreciate my own upbringing. Brianna Karp's life was not an easy one. Sexually abused by her father before her parents divorced, and verbally, physically, and emotionally abused by her mother, Karp survives. She's obviously messed up, but making it through. Her life seems to be getting on the right track, as she carves out independence, and then she loses her job during the recent economic depression. Unable to keep paying rent, she moves into a trailer she inherited when her father died. She lives in a Walmart parking lot and works from Starbucks. She starts a blog, by the same title of her book, that tries to help others who are going through the same thing she is and raise awareness about homelessness, while she's looking for work. She meets people who help her. She falls in love. Things fall together. Things fall apart. You hope for the best for this young woman.
