I was extremely moved by how raw Constance was. I feel like in alot of Memoirs there is honesty and storytelling but not in a way that can make a person look bad. Everyone has done things that they are not proud of but they try to spin a certain narrative. I feel like Constance took a no bullshit approach with her honesty. She was down to earth, gritty and it made me lover her more. I just wanted a little bit more organization maybe chronological order because the different essays kinda got jumbled jumping back and fourth. Other than that I really enjoyed it and the pictures adding a even more personal touch. Highly recommend.
