In her memoir, Matters of the Heart, Monique Thornton gives an honest look at a life fraught with abandonment, trauma, and addiction. However, it is also a story of survival, recovery, and redemption. Her story takes the reader into the day-to-day of living in poverty and addiction. Ms. Thornton also provides a look at the web of the child welfare system from the point of view of birth parents. The book reveals the systems' support and shortcomings. Matters of the Heart is a must-read for social workers, foster and adoptive parents, and all who seek to understand birth parents who have suffered the removal of their children. Ms. Thornton's story does not provide the fairy tale ending we may hope for, but it is a story of hope and the resilience of the human spirit.S. Renay Sanders, MSSA Read more
