dark emotional tense slow-paced

2.0

So many elements in this memoir made me angry. I understood her desire for family, but her immediate family is so dysfunctional  that cutting ties would have made her life much easier. The author seemed like a glutton for punishment in the senior and third parts of the book . Then again, she grew up isolated from much of her extended family. Therefore, losing contact with her immediate family is a greater loss. Overall, this was not my favorite read, but I understand why this is a crowd favorite.
