All That You Leave Behind: A Memoir by Erin Lee Carr

3.0

All That You Leave Behind is a memoir written by Erin Lee Carr that focuses on her relationship with her dad, grief, and their individual struggle with alcoholism. The majority of the book is written in a memoir format, though there are email exchanges and other mementos scattered throughout the story. I think this is one of those books people read because someone famous wrote it (a producer and also David Carr’s daughter). Since I live under a rock, I didn’t know who either Erin or her father is. That being said, I think the author does a good job depicting her struggle with alcoholism, though I wish she wrote more about her grief. Overall it’s a decent read!
