Loved the audiobook, I absolutely loved the narrators voice.  I've recently dipped my toe into memoirs and so far, so good.  Will definitely be looking into Maggie O'Farrell's fiction.

challenging dark emotional funny informative inspiring reflective fast-paced

4.5

This is a really interesting approach to a memoir, focusing on the author's near death experiences and providing life details almost as an afterthought. I haven't had any near death experiences yet the way she wrote about hers was somehow very relatable.
