Part memoir in poetry. Such beautiful writing.

I listened to this as an audiobook and it was like having a friend in my ear. I want to read all her work and soak up every word. Maggie Smith, thank you. Vulnerable, sharp, heart wrenching, and so so funny. What an absolute work of art and such a treat to this world.

I was captured at first but quickly lost interest after reading the same whiny story each chapter. A three hour sob story on divorce. It went on and on.

this is maggie smith’s memoir and, in this book, she explores many different aspects of her life. she talks about heartbreak, motherhood, family, loneliness, grief, rediscovering herself and so much more.

i really really loved this memoir and definitely want to pick up more of maggie smith’s work! maggie is a poet, so this was particularly lyrical and beautifully written. i loved how she talked about big and difficult things, but also talked about more mundane moments as well. i was captured in maggie’s writing from the moment i started this book.

i would definitely recommend this one
