I really enjoyed the poignancy of the authors writing and almost every short story had a sweet reflective message and theme, including Uncoupling where she claims she won’t tie things together. I really enjoyed this.

A memoir in essays about the author’s reckoning with the woman she imagined herself to be versus the woman she actually became. Hauser writes about her journey on finding her place in the world as it relates to love stories: with her family, her friends, her sense of home, her failed relationships—including the engagement she called off—and her stepping in to her bi- and pan-sexuality.
At times meandering yet thoughtful and absorbing.
