I also really appreciate the care and introspection that Washington took when looking back on her childhood and evaluating things given the knowledge she learned about her family. She does mention that she has been in therapy, which contributes to her perspective, but she details her story with such grace and compassion.
Highly recommend it for memoir lovers and Washington fans!

It’s still a beautiful story, and one with a very interesting conclusion, but it’s not a compelling start. It picks up at the end. And low key I wish there was more tea at times about the people she’s worked with - even if just to say she loved them haha. Some tea was spilt, but I think the tea was focused on her and her parents, not her previous costars.
There is some beautiful discussion of motherhood and infertility and just general struggles of women, but there were a few ways in wish I wish it was easier to read.
Moderate: Infertility
