Book Reviews of Riding in Cars with Boys: Confessions of a Bad Girl Who Makes Good
Book Review: "Riding in Cars With Boys..."
Summary: 4 Stars
"Riding in Cars With Boys..." is the well versed biography of Beverly Donofrio, a teenaged mother in a time when teen pregnancy was not accepted with open arms. She speaks lovingly of her son and details the many mistakes she made along the way in trying to raise herself as well as a family. She subtitles her book "Confessions of a Bad Girl Who Makes Good," and truly it seems that she has. I read this book for the first time while pregnant with my first child, at the age of 16. I was newly married and incredibly scared. While Donofrio's life was not picturesque, it did give me hope.
