Maybe more like 3.5 stars all up, but I’m going to hang onto it due to some thoughts on creativity that hit me at the right time.

I listened to the audiobook version of this book.
Marlee is positively charming. I'm glad I got to hear her read this in her own voice. This was a sweet accounting of her personal dance practice. Inspiring in all the right ways for those of us trying to get into our bodies a bit more.

I've followed Marlee on various projects & social media platforms for a few years now. She has been an absolute inspiration & whether through her practice, her creations, or her words - this book is no different.
I'm thankful she decided to share these things with us & that I get to have this pretty little book set on a coffee table to pick up at anytime & remember if you want to do a thing, do it. (among other lessons I took away from her practicing & sharing her thoughts out loud)

I've been following her dancing since very early on - can't remember when or how I stumbled across it - but she is an inspiration and I was very excited when this finally showed up in my mailbox. Did not disappoint, though I'm not sure I could lend it to anybody without making sure they'd watched enough of the feed to get it first. Which, in general, everyone should do anyway. Gentle, hazy, reflective, dreamy, not too concerned with communicating the details or whether the details coming across are the "important" ones; trusting the necessary details to reveal themselves to each person who finds a connection. Largely composed of impressionistic lists.
And that is my best shot at a review. This one might be better: I loved it, and also the cover feels good on your fingers.

Split into three major sections. The first section was my favorite - poetry / free form reflection on practice and being human and changing and growing. But I understand why the other sections were there - they play an important role in the purpose for the book. Definitely a book I think I will be rereading at different points in my life.
