Book Review !! You Need This Book....
Julia just finished reading a very interesting book called A Piece of Cake by a woman named Cupcake Brown. It's a memoir about Cupcake's journey through her drama-filled life. Drama is putting it mildly. Cupcake Brown's life was full of struggle and hardship, yet she came out of it graduating with high honors from a law school in San Francisco. Today she is a lawyer in San Francisco as well as a motivational speaker. As a young girl, Cupcake was placed in foster care and endured years of physical, mental, and sexual abuse. She dropped out of school, joined a gang in LA, became addicted to many different drugs, and had a string of violent and abusive relationships. She finally reached a point where she hit rock bottom, and knew that it was time to change. Cupcake got off of drugs and went to school. It took her many years, but she finally got her law degree. She talks about changing her life and how if she can do it anyone can do it. In the book she says "change isn't for people who NEED it - change is for people who WANT it."
Julia believes that change is possible but it takes hard work. If you want something, whether it's a different job or happiness or to change some kind of behavior, you can have it if you are willing to put the time in.
Read A Piece of Cake if you like reading about inspirational people and acheiving what might seem impossible. Cupcake Brown is someone who was able to overcome some terrible things and rise to the top. Da Nang!!
