realisticreader1's review against another edition

dark emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective tense medium-paced

This book is amazing. Please, everyone read it. This book was a profound exploration of what it means to be a woman in the context of vulnerability, romantic love, self acceptance, and becoming truly visible to those around us and most importantly ourselves. This book vocalised so many feelings and thoughts I didn’t know how to express. I feel seen in a tragically beautiful way. 

*I don’t rate non-fiction books*
