DESCRIPTION:
A powerful story of hope! Had me on the proverbial edge of my seat in so many parts! I set aside all my other reading to finish this first because I couldn't put it down! It's truly a glimpse into a different world that I didn't really know existed. I mean, I knew, but I didn't know what life on the streets was like on a daily basis and the thoughts that run through the minds of those who don't know where they'll sleep or where the next meal will come from. Christine made me laugh and she made me cry. I'm grateful she lived to tell her story. She's an amazing lady and I can't wait for her second book!. Hunger and Employment Struggle Great, informative book! The two things that stood out the most to me was the people needing food and the struggle to find a real job.. Amazing This book was inspiring and shares a story of someone who chose not to give up. It gives a whole new outlook on being an addict and living on the streets.
She has survived brutality and discrimination with astonishing resilience and optimism. Gritty and gripping, this is the story of the author’s journey from almost two decades of prostitution, crack addiction and prison to her present life of blindness, motherhood and happiness. A must-read filled with hope.". "Horrifying, heartbreaking, informative and inspiring." "A story from the hearta riveting memoir." "An eye-opening view of life on the streets and beyond." "Cry Purple chronicles a shattered life, rebuilt through sheer determination, courage and faith." "The most inspiring story I've ever read
