Comments from Goodreads:
It was amazing
Stark, striking, and gripping. I couldn't put it down.
A young woman does her best and struggles for survival in a swirl of abuse, neglect, and addiction. She reports her experience and her own flawed complicity/poor choices with brutal, spare honesty, and it's heartbreaking, crushing, and inspiring.
--Bibliovoracious's review
Barbara plays with life and death in this book, in a way reminiscent of the 1975 novel (and 1977 movie),
Looking for Mr. Goodbar, which showed the potentially dangerous side of free love.
--Maze Dodd's review
Ain't Easy is also a tell-all memoir that doesn't sugar-coat anything, instead being up-front and honest, and at its heart truly inspiring, pointing out that there's always room for reclaiming yourself and making dreams come true.
