thevietvegan's review

challenging emotional funny reflective sad tense medium-paced

4.0

Thought provoking and at times gut-wrenching. It takes a lot to do this much self-reflection, let alone write it all in a book for the world to judge. It is raw, honest, and it seems like it would be very cathartic if these stories were left untold in her heart. Feeling misunderstood is a hard feeling, and I hope she feels more understood after this
