waytoomanybooks's review against another edition
5.0
There are two quotes towards the end of the memoir that I feel capture the essence of the advice Sugar/Cheryl gives:
“It was a becoming that I would not have dreamed was mine” (323)
“Your life will be a great and continous unfolding” (351).
I highly recommend this book. And if you like this one, then you will also love How to be a Person in the World by Heather Havrilesky/Ask Polly.
