I'm glad I read this, but I don't think I could recommend it to most people. The amount of biblical quotes and references to Christianity was too much for me. I tried to skip over those parts, but it felt like it took away from the message to do so.
I enjoyed the perspective and growth the author goes through. I felt a little mislead by the book summary though. I expected there to be more focus on the author's daughter and her experiences. Most of the book focuses on the author's relationship with her mother. I found the book was insightful and thought provoking.
