Had a trainwreck of emotion reading it. The nuance of life, the little things out of daily stuff are beautifully captured yet humorously, painfully delivered. She talked about mental illness, motherhood, sisterhood and marriage; about reaching a certain age you accept love as the way it is. Sorrow is inevitable, but bliss is all you can hold onto.
