nike_1212's review against another edition
5.0
Take a guess. Of course it’s obvious I cried more than once, and I think rightly so because some of those paragraphs hit home so close it’s scary. I was crying in cafes unexpectedly, over dinner, and once I was sat in a bus and suddenly without my control I started sobbing- the topic of the column: the loss of Sugars mom in her early 20s.
This book is so so so caring and thoughtful and loving and gives you a real tough love soft love tough love sandwich. I think nearly every issue that plagues me and some of my close friends- which are broadly ranging- has come up, and made me think like 1000 times about buying it for people around me. This book is radically empathic, and we should be too.
5/5.

I think Strayed is a gifted writer and that her perspective in these is so wise, honest, and generous, but her writing is so full of profanity... and I have so many other things on my list to read... overall I would consider picking this up again but I've just been sick of foul language lately (in the best of times I merely tolerate it) so I'm moving on.

Beautiful. Incredible. The love that flows through this book is as heartbreaking as it is inspiring.

Almost a 3. Cheryl Strayed’s writing is often beautiful, but too crude for my taste.
