challenging informative reflective medium-paced

4.0

I didn't resonate with the style of the essays in the first third of the book, to the point where I almost abandoned it, but the rest more than made up for it. This is a deep, fascinating and diverse read. The stand-out essay for me was Gabrielle Bellot's "Stepping on a Star" -- I'll be keeping an eye out for whatever else she writes.
