"Hi, I'm Sonia Clarke. I have read "The Music of My Life" by Cleoni Crawford. I'm presently writing my own book, "I'm still getting up." If Ms. Crawford can do it, anyone can. Her book is so detailed and transparent. It has its highs and lows (rhythmic plateaus). Nonetheless, I congratulate her for sharing her story which of course can educate others about the challenges of mental illness and of accepting the illness and trusting God can make a difference. No one is immune. Love you girl. Keep writing!!"

"The Music of My Life is a must read for sure. I truly loved the book and was glued from cover to cover. The author, Cleoni Crawford deep dives you into the experience of what it is like to live with certain mental illnesses while being Black. She unashamedly uncovers every complexity possible in written form. Crawford was able to create a precious resource so needed in our community by penning her pain. Her story should be used as a tool to revolutionize our Black family's approach to mental health thus bringing healing and hope to those contending within a broken system."

"Cleoni is an exceptional, smart, and very interesting person. She is passionate, very ambitious and creative. In the short time I have got to know her she has truly blessed my heart. Her book has also given me a better understanding of who she is and what she she has endured and overcome. Her book also helped me understand what people go through that have a mental illness. Her book is amazing and inspirational and it will make you laugh and cry. I would recommend her book for all to read."
