The first Hispanic and third woman appointed to the United States Supreme Court, Sonia Sotomayor has become an instant American icon. Now, with a candor and intimacy never undertaken by a sitting Justice, she recounts her life from a Bronx housing project to the federal bench, a journey that offers an inspiring testament to her own extraordinary determination and the power of believing in oneself.

Here is the story of a precarious childhood, with an alcoholic father (who would die when she was nine) and a devoted but overburdened mother, and of the refuge a little girl took from the turmoil at home with her passionately spirited paternal grandmother. But it was when she was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes that the precocious Sonia recognized she must ultimately depend on herself. She would learn to give herself the insulin shots she needed to survive and soon imagined a path to a different life. With only television characters for her professional role models, and little understanding of what was involved, she determined to become a lawyer, a dream that would sustain her on an unlikely course, from valedictorian of her high school class to the highest honors at Princeton, Yale Law School, the New York County District Attorney's office, private practice, and appointment to the Federal District Court before the age of forty. Along the way we see how she was shaped by her invaluable mentors, a failed marriage, and the modern version of extended family she has created from cherished friends and their children. Through her still-astonished eyes, America's infinite possibilities are envisioned anew in this warm and honest book, destined to become a classic of self-invention and self-discovery.

Great quality, Highly Impressed!
Size: 12, Color: Light Brown
These are of great quality and surprisingly comfortable. This is my first pair of HEYDUDE. I am really impressed! They are true to size. They fit my wide feet without any issues and they are my new absolute favorites! Super lightweight, extra stylish with the platform lift, and completely worth it. The color matches the photos.

Slip on shoe love
Size: 9, Color: Black/Black, Size: 9, Color: Black/Black
These are a more narrow fit so if you are a wide fit girlie or you don’t like tight fitting shoes you might want to try to size up or try to find something that has a wide version. But I love them super cute and absolutely great quality..skip on and slip off love it!!! I will be looking into a different color,I got black for work ..but they are comfortable . Update-after wearing the black suede for a few days I purchased the brown suede as well.... And I can say they do loosen up a little still a a narrow fit but not right feeling.

Walking on clouds…
Size: 6, Color: Blush, Size: 6, Color: Blush
The most comfortable shoes I have ever had. Usually I wear size 6,5 -7. I followed recommendations and order size 6. It was a perfect fit. It was ideal for my problematic wide feet. The shoes are light weight and well made. They look great and feel as cozy as slippers. Absolutely love them and strongly recommend to go size down as I did.

Comfort and fashion collide
Size: 7, Color: Brown Leopard
These platform mules meet the following three criteria points: fashionable, comfortable, and affordable. I wear them all day thanks to the great arch support. In fact, I have three pairs in multiple colors. I normally wear a 7.5 but sized down to 7 after trying a 7 and 8.

Nice looking, quality is iffy 🤷🏻‍♀️
Size: 7, Color: Black Leather
Love the look of these, nice and comfortable, or so I thought. I wore them for the first time yesterday and they rubbed the top of my foot. I hate that they are lined in a fabric that causes friction. I kept them because I loved the look of them, but, in all honesty I think they are expensive for the quality. My right shoe has scrub marks on the leather :-(
