stefanies_books's review against another edition
I think as individual columns this works but as a collection it felt condescending and repetitive. If I could have read one chapter a week (instead of a library loan) it might have been a better experience but I’ll also be fine not finishing this one. IMO this is blog content that should stay that way rather than published in a book format

you’re feeling lost, hopeless, not good enough, deserving but unlucky, regretful, guilty, ashamed, disempowered, confused, heartbroken, lonely, isolated, alone, misunderstood, underachieving.
Read if you are a partner, wife, husband, mother, father, boyfriend, girlfriend, daughter, son, child, friend, fuck buddy, teacher, student.
Read it if you don’t have anyone in your life who can love you and know you but still tell it to your straight.
You will find something here for you, so sift through and find it.

I definitely missed some trigger warnings but there were so many I can’t remember them. If I had known about them, I wouldn’t have read the book. It’s so heavy. Despite that, I know that it helped me a little bit, deal with some of the things that have happened to me.absolutely_court's review against another edition

It cracks me open every time, but also holds my hand as we put the pieces back together. I need to read it again soon.
"I'll never know, and neither will you, of the life you don't choose. We'll only know that whatever that sister life was, it was important and beautiful and not ours. It was the ghost ship that didn't carry us. There's nothing to do but salute it from the shore."

هذا الكتاب هو مجموعة اجوبة "سكر" ونصائحها بعمود اسئلة لمجلة The Rumpus.
العنوان يذكر ان النصائح هي عن الحب والحياة لكن هي اعطت نصائح لكل شيء. طريقتها بالاجابة وكيف استوحت امثلة من حياتها ومن حياة الاشخاص الي حواليها كانت مؤثرة جدا. كتابتها جميلة للغاية ، استخدمت العديد من التشبيهات التي يكون لها اثر قوي بالقاريء. خلال قرائتي لهذا الكتاب ضحكت وبكيت وبعض الاجوبة كانت بالضبط ما احتجت سماعه.
