Un altro dei voti inspiegabili di goodreads.
Cose che ho apprezzato: le belle citazioni, la struttura ("Una mia amica dice che ogni buon libro inizia con una domanda"), la poesia finale.
Cose che non ho apprezzato: il vuoto mascherato da poesia, le infinite ripetizioni, il tema di base, il "Reader, non ti dirò questo" (Ma perchè stai a scrive un memoir mortacci de pippo), tutto il resto.
Non metto una stella perché immagino che ci siano libri oggettivamente più brutti.

Maggie Smith, indeed, makes this place a little more beautiful.

Note: my reviews are more like personal notes to self.
My life and my best friend’s life are so parallel, until they weren’t. Until she had kids and I didn’t. Until she got divorced, and I didn’t. Maggie Smith just gave me an inside look into my BF’s mind, all the things she doesn’t say, all the worries she doesn’t share. Read this book if you want to understand a single-parent, made that way not by choice.

I love a good vignette but DAMN. The self importance and animosity towards her readers was incredibly off putting. This is one of those books that you know is only as popular as it is because the author has a platform (which the author seems to resent enormously). Maggie Smith can write, of course, but this book feels way less profound than it seems to think it is.
