Women Like Us: A Memoir

Product Information

Judith Ortiz Cofer Was born in 11952, she moved with her family to Paterson, New Jersey, and when she was fifteen, the family settle in Augusta, Georgia. The author is very likeable and having read all of her books, following her social media posts and blog, I now feel that I have had a personal seat at her table and understand why she is able to produce such great emotional fiction. She and her husband always take the time to reply to her fans in her own down to earth fashion, and I challenge anyone to finish this book and not want to count Amanda as a friend. This book shows how it just takes one person in one moment with one opportunity to make a childhood dream come true. I thought, from the title, this would be some short stories under the over-arching umbrella of stories about women - possibly about her or possibly about women in her life.
