I loved this book so much, I felt like I really understood and connected to Sadie and how she was feeling. They were some truly amazing quotes and ideas that I’d never heard of before (e.g confirmation bias: we think what we think we’re going to think). I loved how Katherine Center showed us how wrong first impressions can be: insert
Joe’s one night stand with a bulldog.
And how freeing it can be to choose which thoughts to indulge in, how those positive, self-encouraging thoughts can create hope.  

“Our thoughts create our emotions. So if you fixate on your worst-case scenario, you’ll make things harder for yourself”
