Everything/Nothing/Someone: A Memoir by Alice Carrière

challenging emotional hopeful reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

Absolutely incredible memoir. I had never heard of Alice or either of her parents before but was recommended this book by a friend, who knows I love memoirs and hearing stories of people's lives. Getting to hear Alice share herself and her family was magnificent and heartbreaking. Her writing was insightful, funny, poetic, and real. Hearing her narrate it herself brought so much to it as well. Incredible.
