Wow. Cried. At the risk of sounding like an asshole: There’s not a new story here, but it’s told in a new way. It’s told in an honest way. It literally felt like I was reading someone’s diary or my own diary. It’s messy in a cathartic way. Something I will probably read again many many years later.

I really enjoyed this. I don’t typically go for nonfiction but the cover and title of this one drew me in.  I found Zoe’s struggles and fears relatable.
