The Hard Parts: A Memoir of Courage and Triumph by Oksana Masters

When I received this book around pub day in February, I figured I’d devour it. But after reading just a short bit, I had to put it aside. And it was entirely because of how intense and emotional it was.

I’m so happy that last week I felt up to picking it up again. Masters story still hit hard and there were days I needed to put the book away. But honestly those are the kind of memoirs I love the most, the raw, heartfelt ones that don’t mince words.

Oksana Masters has had quite a life and I highly recommend this memoir of adversity and survival. It’s a powerful one. But please check out the trigger warnings as there are many.
