The first 60 pages I didn't realize that this could be categorized as a self help book at all, I thought it was just a memoir that was realistic and funny about marriage and parenting and love and life.
The middle gets more self helpy, more of telling you what to do. And then she starts to have a bit of her own language to explain metaphors for things mentioned earlier in the book. But most of the time, the self help part is her just sharing what she did and her thoughts and experiences.
It can make you feel a LOT of feels. There were times I had to just end a chapter and stop reading so I could sit and contemplate for awhile.
That being said, the chapters are a very small, only a few pages, so that means you make progress in the book very quickly. I finished in a week! (Which is impossibly fast for me).
Overall, it was good and I would recommend it to people. It offered some interesting ideas and makes you realize some things about yourself.
She is a wonderful story teller. And her account of meeting Abby for the first time is the most romantic thing I've ever heard in my life. And they didn't even have to DO anything romantic, they just existed. It was exceedingly lovely.
