dark emotional hopeful inspiring reflective tense medium-paced

4.0

I never really like to rate memoirs or nonfiction of this sort because I feel like I’m not supposed to find entertainment in someone sharing their story. But the reason I gave this  book 4 stars is because, towards the middle I completely zoned out. I was here and wasn’t all at the same time. That was the only flaw of the book. Some things could have been left out, I feel, but again it’s not my place to judge someone’s life.

I read the acknowledgements, thats how much I didn’t want this book to end. I did not grow up with Jessica, I never watched  Newlyweds. I am so crazy happy I read this book though. It was absolutely amazing to see a young girl who had been through more than you would expect come though to be in such a good place. Her journey is not over but the one shown in the book leaves inspiration and hope for anyone.
