I LOVED this memoir. It felt so incredibly authentic and hard and real and scary. It's definitely not a happy story, but it felt like reading Ms. Field's journals. Truly fuck everyone who made her life so rough. I will definitely want to revisit this one. I think this would be really interesting to analyze from a PTSD and coping mechanisms. And note to self - this was one of the one where all of the annotations disappeared on the Kobo.
