Heart Berries: A Memoir by Terese Marie Mailhot
5.0

A friend of mine lent me this book at first, but then when I read the first few pages I knew I had to get my own copy because I wanted to underline sentences in it (not something I have been compelled to do very often). This book is beautifully written and I wanted to both devour it so fast but also linger with it. I also found it heavy and wanted to take it slowly, perhaps in tandem with some lighter reading. Resultingly, I put it down and came back to it much later, which is a shame because I think it impacted the book for me. I might reread it in its entirety as a result.
