Janet's Story

I really enjoyed Janet's book and would recommend it. She and I grew up in the same neighborhoods at the same time, went to the same high school, received the same basic advice and training from our parents, but we have two totally different perspectives about our experiences. Hers is an interesting read about the time and place where we were born and grew to adulthood.
