Nice Girls Don't Win
by Parvati Shallow
emotional
funny

inspiring
reflective
fast-paced
I listened to the audiobook and would recommend it. I love when authors read their own autobiographies, and Parvati does a nice job here. I of course had to read this, she's my favorite Survivor player of all time! She was robbed in Heros vs. Villains! This book doesn't really get too deep behind the scenes of her time on Survivor and focuses more on how Parvati has employed survival strategies to navigate her life. I had no idea about her early life on a commune and how that profoundly influenced her life and her game on Survivor. It was all very interesting, especially her chronicling the different survival strategies she employed through time and how her body "kept the score" of past, unresolved traumas. And then how she healed from all of that. This book also has the only description of dating a nonbinary person I've ever read, which I appreciated. Overall fun read, would recommend!
