Firstly, I have to mention this is the first audiobook I’ve ever listened to so I’m really proud of myself for that one.

Secondly, this was genuinely both heartbreaking and captivating, I wanted to be listening all day. The fact that she’s the one reading it as well :( I’m so sad for her and what she experienced- I never would have guessed. And the fact that you can see the conception of her illnesses as well- broke my heart. But I’m very happy for her now and want to see what she does next.

I never realized how much went on in Jeanette’s life and it’s astonishing that she had to deal with it all herself. I felt myself relating to some parts of the book, letting out a gasp at new information being revealed, and felt inspired by the little gems of insight she leaves. It’s a very fast book, the chapters go by super quickly and goes dark at some points. I listened to her audiobook where she narrates it and although she’s monotonous for the most part, it’s still interesting hearing her read her life story and the anger she felt at times, or the sadness, etc. All in all, I found it an interesting read and am in awe of what she’s capable of.
