I'm not really a memoir person, but this one was written rather well. The way Smarsh addresses the reader as a potential, unborn child of hers may be a bit disconcerting for some readers, but personally, it reminded me of listening to members of my family tell anecdotal stories, which I greatly enjoyed. Not sure this'll ever be a read again, but I'm not unhappy to have read it
