This wasn’t quite what I expected/hoped, but May’s thoughtful, often lovely writing and empathetic voice were still something I have very much enjoyed over the last month. It’s more of a diary (a travelogue of the self, maybe) than something with a thesis or specific arc, though. As specific as the book’s insights are to May’s life and circumstances, she does an admirable job of extracting and spotlighting meaningful takeaways a broader audience (i.e., me) could find comfort or connection in.
