I was having a hard time getting into this book. The moment that changed for me was when she told the story of her grandma passing away. From there I was hooked. My other favorite section of the book was when she was talking about mental health and medication.

A book you could read over and over again and continue to still come away with something learned and a new perspective. A very raw an honest memoir, I want all of my friends to read it.

Loved that it’s all anecdotes about her and how she sorted her life out, with little suggestions but she never preaches or insists one do it her way. It’s just her story and it’s lovely. Well written, too

This book is brilliant and transformational. I read it in small chunks as it was so deeply impactful. I found myself in good tears for the majority of it. A must read.
