Shattered but not broken, Shaneé Morgan, shares the raw and uncut story of her journey through childhood trauma, tragedy, resilience, and healing. This shocking yet powerful memoir recalls the author’s childhood growing-up in 5th Ward Houston, Texas also known as “The Nickel,” in the midst of the crack epidemic. From the crack house to the school house, Shaneé recounts the tragic events that could’ve claimed her life, or the lives of her family if not for the grace and mercy of God. Later, realizing there was a greater purpose for her life, she set out to change the trajectory of the family cycle, by breaking generational curses and strongholds, in an effort to provide herself and her family a better life. Having to confront her past through extensive therapy allowed the author to share her tragic story to inspire and motivate other survivors to believe in their ability to succeed through healing, growth, hard work, dedication, and a desire to be their best selves, despite the tragedies and adversity they may have faced.




Review
I liked that this was written in very easy-to-read language that describes some not-too-easy-to-swallow events of the author's life.

In plain language, Shanee Morgan describes some of the often despairing, futile, and absurd years of her life. 
I found this book to be informative and enlightening on the topic. It's well written and engrossing. It really sheds light and inspires many who may themselves be in a similar situation or know someone who is.
