Although dealing with varied themes throughout from mental health to relationship issues this book is thoroughly well written throughout.  Rooneys unique style is something to get used to but was overall enjoyable even if not a favourite. 


Poetic, existential yet faithless it continues to have my engagement. 

I felt it address topics like endometriosis and body troubles well, but definitely could’ve benefited from some trigger warnings as I can see how it could be a harder read personally for certain individuals
