emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad

4.0

i went through a lot of sticky notes with this (in fact, i decided it was worth sacrificing another book [to a library] as i got my copy from an exchange library and wanted to mark it up). the first section—mind—hit especially hard. some things i needed to hear. not all of them were hits, of course, but i'd say more often than not they were.

i found that certain poems resonated with me, but the majority of the book felt like quotes that could be found on twitter or an instagram post. i resonate with her trauma, and understand what she intended to convey, i just feel as though it lacked depth.
