Touching memoir
This memoir will give you all the feels. It is a touching story of a boy trying to find his way, under the care of his aging grandparents, as his mother fades in and out of his life. His mother is a heroin addict, and the author struggles to understand the addiction his family lives under the shadow of. In the meantime, he finds tough but real love from his grandparents and finds direction in life through his artistic talent. A timely and emotional read.
