i picked up this book a few months ago but then life happened and then i started a series instead and after awhile completely forgot about it. then the other night i downloaded the audiobook and drove around my city while listening to it and laughed and cried and smiled. i had picked this book back up at such a specific time in my life it almost felt unreal. i truly enjoyed this read.

So I pressed on with Tiny Beautiful Things.
And it was the right decision. Through Sugar, Cheryl Strayed offers the most honest and kind-hearted advice rooted in a deep love for her fellow humans. I consider myself to be very reflective, very intelligent, very aware of myself and how to operate as a good person in this world. I didn't think I would learn much from this collection. But I did. It filled me. It brought me the feeling that all of us, even those who feel sickeningly wrong so much of the time, will be okay if we try.
Strayed is unafraid to explore the awful and the absurd. But more than that, she is unafraid to try to find wonder and possibility in all of it. It is hopeful. It is terrifying. It is brimming with love. And it is absolutely worth reading, no matter who you are.
