Group: How One Therapist and a Circle of Strangers Saved My Life by Christie Tate

2.0

Did you know that Christie Tate doesn’t suck dirty dick? She reminded the reader that she won’t suck dirty dick more times than I can count.

This is definitely a memoir and nothing more. The authors’ experience in group therapy is not representative of most group therapy experiences or therapy in general. The group she attends feels very cultish. The premise behind the therapy is that we just don’t have secrets! Everyone knows everything. There were lots of shaming moments.

I am glad that Tate saw progress in her struggles, but holy heck, she comes off as whiney and entitled.

This was a weird read. The timelines were strange and confusing. The majority of the book was Tate going off about how she wanted a relationship and didn’t want to die alone and discussed her sex life in great explicit detail.

Don’t forget Christie Tate doesn’t suck dirty dick.
