Let me just say that I adore Laura and her blog. I find her extremely witty and funny on Twitter.
I listened to the audiobook, narrated by her but, something just didn’t click for me. It is a tale of heartbreak, loss and finding yourself but for me, I felt for a memoir, much of it was heavily embellished.
It’s a real shame, I wanted to love this but I just couldn’t gel with it - despite myself having overcome heartbreak after a long term relationship. There are other reviews with the same thoughts that reflect how I feel too but sadly, this one just wasn’t for me.

I absolutely adored this book! I have been a fan of LJW for a while and have only just got round to reading her debut, I cannot wait to read the next books from her.

I hate myself for such a low review as I adore Laura’s blog and Instagram, I recommend it to others all the time. However I couldn’t get on bored with Becoming. It felt so over emphasised and fake? Some of the conversations - nobody talks like that nobody I know anyone. Nobody actually calls there best friend baby girl or sugar tits, do they?

A beautiful book about vulnerability, heartbreak, strength and gumption.
I’m a big fan of Laura’s online presence and red magazine articles and this book made me fall more in love with her tellings of her faults, and wisdom.
There were so many sections I highlighted and will revisit because honestly, we as humans never recover from heartbreak of past loves. The baggage always follows us in to healthy relationships and plays tricks but Laura guided a light to becoming our own champion and doing the work to loving ourselves will help us swim through the waves when they hit unexpectedly.

I’m so confused at all the rave-reviews? This was absolute self-absorbed drivel. It was so dull. I was hoping this would be uplifting and inspiring but in reality, I was so bored.
