Easily one of the best books I've read of all time. I haven't felt this all-consumed while reading a book in awhile. It should be required reading, but as another reviewer said, "There is no scenario in which I am a more trusted source than Obama, Oprah, the New York Times Book Review, and the Goodreads Choice Awards combined, and if they’ve all already told you to read this (which they have) then I don’t know why my recommendation would push this whole thing over the edge for you."

Be prepared to cry.

4.25✨ this book hooked me from the start. I would be very interested to see how she reflects on these life events now after a few years of this book coming out.
