In Mirror, we meet Maya, a young woman on the run from herself. A sexual assault survivor and sex worker, Maya wants to reckon with her past and build a different life. When a good Samaritan, Monica, takes Maya under her wing, Maya embarks on a journey of radical self-acceptance. Latrice tells Maya’s story without stigmatizing her experiences. Mirror isn’t concerned with litigating what Maya “did wrong” or pushing a bootstraps narrative. No, Mirror is about the transformative power of believing in yourself and the importance of paying it forward. Monica, Maya’s grandmother, and other female characters save Maya. Her triumphant rise serves as a practical, small-scale example of empowered women empowering women.

This was a really sad tear dropping book ... the beginning was such a shock because I wasn’t expecting this girl to be so fast and out their like that with no feeling or regards of herself or her body. (But this happens in this world today ... especially with our young black girls!)
I’m happy that the author Jenifer Latrice made a book with a great positive ending giving our girls and sisters hope that their lives can be better (we don’t pick our parents) but we can change the behavior
Blessing everyone ... please share this book!

This book was awesome! I think I experienced every emotion reading this book. Self-love is a must! This book is a great example of how not being raised by parents who show love and affection can hurt a person. I highly recommend this book.
