slow-paced
2.5
This book started off strong, but never really made its point. I had hoped for an in-depth analysis of the ways in which wellness culture intersects with race and class, and Róisín did touch on this. However, the majority of the book was about her personal trauma and the search for "wellness" that came after it.
