I'm Telling the Truth, but I'm Lying: Essays by Bassey Ikpi

4.0

This is a book of essays that takes you out of your comfort zone. Bassey Ikpi’s writing is so vivid and sharp that you are right there experiencing everything with her. I had to stop halfway through because it triggered the thoughts in my head I thought I buried about my own struggles with anxiety. I had to take a break halfway through because I was crying too much. This is a heavy read and it’s an important one.
