From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "I really enjoyed her writing style and the way she captures her experiences as a young adult and single mother navigating life's challenges. I especially loved seeing how her talent opened doors and propelled her into show business."; "Another excellent segment of Angelou's life story, in which she becomes a dancer and singer in San Francisco and New York, tours Europe and North Africa in Porgy & Bess, and returns to her family and 9 year old son to restart her life once again. Looking forward to #4!"; "Angelou's memoirs continue to showcase her stunning voice and brilliant analysis of the world around her. I loved the honest insight into her slice of the world in the ~50s."
