phlakey 's review for:
The Beauty in Breaking: A Memoir
by Michele Harper
I just couldn’t get into this book. There were some interesting stories, but it just felt like something was missing. I appreciated that Harper wrote about her life and career from an intersectional feminist lens.
ETA- I think what this book was missing was real vulnerability. Harper seems almost too perfect. I never felt like she truly “broke.” Additionally the dialogue and stories are written in a way that feel fake and cheesy. This memoir comes across as a bit superficial and trite.
