This is horrendous. I just can't carry on. I'm honestly surprised that Jen Lancaster has gone through life behaving like this, I can't find any growth or reflections here.

I think the point of this book is to show how unlikable she was and to show her growth, but I won’t know because I can’t stand to read anymore. At page 12 she makes a horrible racist remark and stereotype about a homeless Muslim man. Then at page 22 they apparently have a problem with an employee with Down syndrome(allegedly) and have nicknamed him retard-y Arty which is just so awful.
