Review: A Must Read! - You do not need to be a fan of Carmelo Anthony or of basketball( although I am of both) to appreciate this book on love and appreciation for family and chosen family, a belief in oneself and others around you, gratitude, and surviving trauma and the societal ills that a child or young person should never have to bear. It is written so well and there are sentences(sentiments) that I keep re-reading, “Being True to yourself looks to a lot of people like losing your mind”. This book is a gem. I hung on every word, felt every joy and and every pain. I was sad to reach that last page. I wanted more. It is my hope that another book is written. I am invested and want to know how his family and friends are and what Melo had to navigate or endure as he plays in the NBA. This book deserves a literary award.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Where Tomorrow’s Aren’t Promised, let alone a Hall of Fame NBA Career
*by K***R on September 22, 2021*

When I pre-ordered Melo’s new memoir, I expected to read about his illustrious, Hall of Fame NBA career. However, the book only covers up until the day of the NBA Draft. Instead, Melo writes about his extremely challenging upbringing, where despite that all the cards were stacked against him, he perseveres. ​You don’t have to be a fan of the NBA or even basketball in general to enjoy this memoir. It is more about growing up in the projects in both Red Hook, Brooklyn, and even more so near the “Murphy Homes” in Baltimore. The Murphy homes nicknamed “Murder Homes” are the subject of HBO’s “The Wire”. Melo describes how the sounds of gunshots were a normal, everyday sound. Murder and death are commonplace and Melo’s loved ones aren’t invulnerable. Melo is very candid in this book about the mental struggles he endured in this environment which provide a powerful and moving perspective. The main hero of his story is his mother, Michelle, who made seemingly impossible ends meet to support Melo and to provide an inspiring role-model. ​Overall, Melo shares his story in a very meaningful and moving way. Already being a fan of Carmelo’s game, reading this made me become more a fan of him as an individual. Melo’s powerful message coupled with casual readability make this a memoir that I would recommend to most friends.
