Normal is relative, and Normal for Sue growing up was High School dropout teenage parents, backwoods strict Baptist rituals, pedophiles, poorly made clothes...living in a trailer that is now a chicken coop.
Now, Normal is discovering the power of lying, stealing, alcohol, drugs and mastering the Art of Selling along the way. Normal is making Headline News, inventing a new product, landing in a movie and creating a real, not 'normal' life.
I hightly recommend this book as a truly inspirational story of courage, conviction and absolute dedication in taking what life presents and turning it around.
Ms. Scales-Medeiros presents a story which embraces the belief that anyone cn overcome obstacles in life, no matter how difficult or traumatic.
This book will leave you full of the determination to meet your own goals and truly believe you may do so.
I truly enjoyed this story very well written and part of the storyline is in the area of California I grew up in, something I always enjoy to remind me of home. I found this Author by fate I feel. Ginny thought she knew me and then I looked at her Facebook page I saw mention of the Book she had written. I am an avid reader after looking at the reviews I purchased her book and read it in 2 nights. Definitely worth reading.
When you come from nothing, anything looks good. But then you question: What is Normal? That is exactly what happened to Sue. This is a fantastic read about a little girl's journey to figure out life. Everything from cinnamon sticks to electric cars to family. Just like life, this book has it's ups and downs and all arounds. It's not a story a poor girl; it's the story of a girl who persevered and overcame all the obstacles to make a life for herself. When you turn the page, you root for Sue to keep going, and going, and going. Don't look back. Keep going forward, Sue!
