For Small Creatures Such as We: Rituals for Finding Meaning in Our Unlikely World by Sasha Sagan
4.0
I won a copy of this book through Goodreads Giveaways and am voluntarily leaving a review.
This is a sweet and interesting little book, a memoir of Sagan’s parents and upbringing and a social history of how human beings have marked things. It’s not exactly what I thought it would be—I was expecting a kind of step-by-step guide to creating your own rituals—but it’s better; the elements are there to allow you to do that but it’s really left up to you, not Pinterested in little boxes for you.
