Julie’s Reviews > Ava: My Story > Status Update

I have now started Ava, My Story by Ava Gardner. I've read the first three chapters where she describes growing up dirt poor, the youngest of 19 children, and the death of her father. Knowing a little about sharecropping in the 20's and 30's in the south, I don't think she exaggerated one bit...if anything, she seems to be sugar coating it a bit. I think I'll be enjoying this book.
