I literally needed to look at the themes of her other book to save myself from giving this a lower rating because TBH any part going into detail about her husband were the worst parts of the book. However, her focus on learning to love herself and accept her past experiences (and boy are they heavy) without keeling over to the unsolicited advice that the 'religious people' were throwing at her made me relate and look up to her strength.
