3.0

This was a great book for what it was. It was difficult for me to read because my former self related so heavily to a lot of the dark thoughts and negative self image. (Not that I’m perfectly healthy now, but certainly not as bad as I used to be.) This book should definitely come with trigger warnings, but it is nice to read about someone else feeling similar things and somehow still getting through it.
