hopeful informative inspiring slow-paced
This collection made me uncomfortable and that was good. It showed me how far I've strayed from my original desires/intentions when I was young - I so thought I would be free love, fully realized, pleasure seeking, and open to "out there" shit. But something changed, and I can't say what. Now I feel almost prudish, wincing at writing about pleasure, even hating the word "pleasure." So while this was an imperfect book (needed a lot more editing and was disconnected), I'm glad I stuck with it. It reminded me that I need to purposely seek out more of this to remember what I used to want. And to see if I still do.

I have owned this book for some time now, but only recently felt called to read it. It is one that I knew I would get a lot out of and I wanted to take my time reading it. I am a big amb fan and this furthered that.
