I related to a lot of the themes in this book but wasn’t a huge fan of the writing style. Lawson writes very conversationally - bordering on stream of consciousness- so I see why it’s very popular, but it’s just not something I’m super fond of. There are sections when she talks about mental illness and her feelings where I feel like she’s describing exactly how I feel, but then it was usually followed by a filler chapter that I assume is to lighten the mood, but I could have done without.
Graphic: Mental illness
Minor: Suicidal thoughts
