letterpress's review against another edition

She was completely open and unfiltered. I love that we are reading how she finds herself and her voice is so powerful in this book. I love that she took the power to write this about her life. I cannot imagine the courage it must have taken to write something so vulnerable.
She had me in tears by the 3rd chapter and laughing at the end.
I recommend you do the full experience of having her voice in the audiobook read this to you as you follow along with a physical copy. It will completely grip you. This without a doubt is my favorite read of the year. I wish I could give it more than 5 stars.

I will be digesting and processing these words for such a long time.
Thank you Ms. Davis for opening up your heart and your life and sharing it with the world through so many works. From the screen to this novel. Thank you for portraying pain and anguish in depth that only some may ever truly understand. Thank you for gifting words to my own struggle, some of which I haven’t been able to voice or give language to. And thank you for allowing me to journey alongside you in finding who you are. Wishing I could return the sentiment.
A truly, beautifully hard, real, and binding book.
