About this item
Description
Book Synopsis
In my book, you will meet a little girl named Viola who ran from her past until she made a life changing decision to stop running forever.
This is my story, from a crumbling apartment in Central Falls, Rhode Island, to the stage in New York City, and beyond. This is the path I took to finding my purpose and my strength, but also to finding my voice in a world that didn't always see me.
As I wrote Finding Me, my eyes were open to the truth of how our stories are often not given close examination. They are bogarted, reinvented to fit into a crazy, competitive, judgmental world. So I wrote this for anyone who is searching for a way to understand and overcome a complicated past, let go of shame, and find acceptance. For anyone who needs reminding that a life worth living can only be born from radical honesty and the courage to shed facades and be...you.
Finding Me is a deep reflection on my past and a promise for my future. My hope is that my story will inspire you to light up your own life with creative expression and rediscover who you were before the world put a label on you.

The first 8 chapters were repetitive. She always reflected back to being in elementary and wetting the bed at night. Or her parent’s drama was a non-stop highlight every chapter. It definitely didn’t need to be 17 chapters.
Great book!

I just love her story the way she presented to us her hardship and how the emotions between the line of wanting to be better and loving the ones who caused the hurt within. As a dark skin young black women I understand her feelings of not feeling beautiful growing up, not being affirmed even by the people closest to us. Just make sure you get the book honestly and read it.
Finding Me is a worth reading.

This is an amazing book. It is beautifully written. Viola Davis is so transparent and forthcoming about her life and journey. It was an interesting and emotional story to read. While very raw and often sad, it was equally hopeful and inspiring. Reading this book has really made me love her even more. I highly recommend this book.
