I expected this to be more historical than autobiographical, so I struggled a little bit to adjust to how personal all of the essays were. It was interesting to read about the author's experiences, but I hoped for something more broad.

mcrystal1000's review against another edition

So I got a little over halfway into this book before stopping because somehow it became about how her someone the author knew in college had suicidal thoughts and  mental illness. The way I’ve processed the book it doesn’t really seem hella relevant and it’s just not something I want to read.
