Men Have Called Her Crazy by Anna Marie Tendler
challenging
emotional
reflective
medium-paced
I found this to be a really fascinating read. This book made me angry, it made me sad, it made me laugh, and it made me appreciative. I especially apprecaited Anna baring her soul in this book and allowing others to walk through her life experiences with her. It feels as though Anna is sharing a diary in this book.
This is a good book for women who have dealt with misogyny and mental health problems. This is not a self help book by any means, but I believe it could help others to feel seen and less alone. It helps to see someone else experience what you have gone through.
I will say, if you are going into this looking for a tell all on her marriage you will be disappointed; that is not the point of this book. But if you go into it expecting to connect with another woman over shared experiences and raw soul-bearing, you will be very satisfied.
I struggle to rate memoirs but if I had to I would give this around a 4.25.
