challenging dark emotional informative reflective sad slow-paced

5.0

This is a very dense book. It will need to be reread many times because the first read was like a primer. I took as many notes as I could. I gave myself a little affirming wink whenever I saw a book referenced that I’d already read and jotted down others that are more on my TBR list. Of all the books I’ve read by this author, this one was the heaviest. This one will ground me, whereas the others activate me.
