Oh man... What an impossible book to rate. If you have been given, gifted, advised, lent this book, if someone you love looked you in the eye and said 'you HAVE to read this', then take it, let it take you, overtake you. This book has chosen you, and it is likely to be the shape of you in ways you didn't know you had a shape. The meandering yearnings from within. Then again, it is flawed - it could have been more edited, I think, it tends to repeat itself and lose itself sometimes, and I am sure there is much to be said about its portrayal of mental health. But I was there and the fire within too.
