It Chooses You by Miranda July

4.0

It was a challenge not to read this in one sitting. It's about humans and connection and time and love and stories. The most pervasive quality of this project is its honesty, and it's what makes it worth reading. The writing is funny, then sweet, then sad, then a little pretentious, then disconnected, then humble, but always feels honest. The way she interacted with and felt about the Pennysaver people made me slightly uneasy at times, but that uneasiness is part of why this project was worth doing. By the end I thought it was beautiful and was happy to be reminded that the human experience is one we share.
