"Lara Love Hardin shares compelling and important truths in her beautifully told personal story. * Piper Kerman, author of Orange is the New Black * Thrilling, funny, heart-breaking and moving. I'll return to this book when I need to be reminded of the power of the human spirit. * David Sheff, author of Beautiful Boy * Hardin is an aptly named genius with a heart of gold. * Archbishop Desmond Tutu * Compelling and timely. * Bryan Stevenson, author of Just Mercy * A hilarious and heart-breaking confession that will not let you go until it is done - and then it will haunt you. * Lori Gottlieb, author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone * A courageous and inspiring memoir * Kirkus Reviews * A suburban mom weathers addiction, jail, and parole in this roller-coaster debut memoir... Hardin mixes despair and comedy in her evocative prose: ""I carefully pick through the bottom-of-purse debris until I find some small brown chips.... I don't know if I'm smoking heroin or food crumbs or lint, but I feel the anxiety slowly leave my chest."" This redemption story feels well earned.' * Publishers Weekly * 'Laced with penetrating wit, written with unsparing honesty and manifesting irrepressible resilience, The Many Lives of Mama Love is a book to intrigue, enchant, instruct, entertain and inspire readers of all ages and backgrounds. It speaks to our common human experience of suffering and the healing that can follow.' * Gabor Maté M.D., author of the New York Times bestseller, The Myth of Normal * This book will make you laugh, cry, and realize that everyone deserves a chance and, sometimes more than one. A powerful, poignant memoir filled with grace, enlightenment and love. * Dr. James Doty, author of the New York Times bestseller, Into The Magic Shop * Hardin reveals who we truly are deep inside: infinite souls of limitless possibility. We are far more than the sum of what we have done and not done, what we have and do not have. In her profound, moving memoir, Hardin is honest, courageous, and challenges us to exceed the limiting definition we impose on ourselves and one another. We all can be redeemed. * Dr. Lisa Miller, psychologist and author of the New York Times bestseller, The Spiritual Child *"
