Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.Sample Book Insights: #1 My granddaddy, who was a moonshiner in Georgia, was the only black man I’ve ever met who was never broke a day in his life. He stored his jugs of corn liquor in the living room in a beat-up old refrigerator.#2 I grew up in a bootleg house with my nine siblings, and I hated it. I would go to sleep hoping that I would wake up and find myself magically living in a clean house, but instead I would wake up and find some stranger passed out cold on the living room floor, covered in their own piss and puke.#3 My mother, an alcoholic, was the main reason I didn’t act like other kids on TV. She didn’t help with homework or give us advice. She barely took the time to name her own kids.#4 I hated when my mother made me dance, but she did it all the time. I never knew why until one night when I saw Mr. Tommy slip her a couple of dollars right before she pushed me and my sister onto the floor.
