Splendid read, definitely one of my best reads so far. While it most certainly does not paint the whole picture of what therapy is, it was am informative, fun and heartening read.
🎯 I loved learning about the technicalities shown through examples of the patients as well as Lori herself.
🎯 The growth of all the characters, even the worst ones. I celebrated and cried with some (her experience with Julie got my tears flowing).
🎯 Seeing parts of others and myself in the characters made it a good opportunity for reflection.
🎯 It was well-written and personable, there were twists that kept you going
🤔 The bouncing back and forth of characters and timeline got a bit confusing at some points
🤔It felt like Charlotte didn't really get an ending, like what happened to her and dude?
Overall a great book if you're seeking a (not-so-dry) book to learn more about yourself and have a great insight into therapy.
