I Am Jessica: A Surivor's Powerful Story of Healing and Hope by Jamie Collins

5.0

I purchased this book after listening to a true crime podcast, "Counterclock", Season 3, which is based on Jessi's family tragedy and investigation into it.

THIS right here is what a memoir SHOULD BE. It was very well done, and done so in a brilliant manner having the story told from many of the person's involved perspectives and points of view at different times over the years.

It was honest and raw, and in my opinion, quite motivational in some of the descriptions of how and why coping and healing has/had taken place.

I found some profound quotes throughout about who we are, and who we will be, and accepting one's self in all of our "versions"; learning to blend ourselves of now with ourselves of then.

I thought this was brilliant.
