dark hopeful lighthearted reflective sad medium-paced

This was a weird and wonderful book. I found myself grossed out, fascinated, and feeling seen at every turn.

3.5

honest and candid. not all of the essays were for me but i enjoyed the ones i liked very much. helps show that while someone can grow and heal they aren’t necessarily completely healed, and can still have parts of themselves they would like to work on. an important and real showcase of mental illness throughout one’s life and relationships.
