I would have preferred to hear more about her heading journey. The ending felt rushed to wrap things up.

Great book. A very dark life story about Jennettes terrible upbringing with an extremely controlling narcisistic mother. I couldn't stop reading it. To anyone reading this book who relates to her story, please read Dr. Ramani Durasulvas books about navigating narcissism. I highly recommend them.

Really intense, and just thinking that this all happened makes it quite hard to get through, really emotional
