Kirkus Review: "The fact that her story has a surprisingly happy ending (as the initials “MD” after her name on the memoir’s cover attest) does little to blunt the sting that this gritty narrative of homelessness and young womanhood leaves in its wake."Hindsight: Coming of age on the streets of Hollywood, walks you through Sheryl's harsh upbringing and takes you on a journey with her as she struggles to survive as a homeless teen. This book will give you a glimpse into what it is like to feel unheard, unseen, and unloved; and it will reveal the impact of caring adults on traumatized youth. Become part of the movement to #endyouthhomelessness.
