Thicker Than Water: A Memoir by Kerry Washington

emotional funny hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced

5.0

I would rate this book a 6 out of 5 because I greatly enjoyed it. Washington's vulnerability and writing style made this book relatable and difficult to put down. I identified with Washington's description of being the only child and the dynamics that are created within a family of this type.

I also really appreciate the care and introspection that Washington took when looking back on her childhood and evaluating things given the knowledge she learned about her family. She does mention that she has been in therapy, which contributes to her perspective, but she details her story with such grace and compassion. 

Highly recommend it for memoir lovers and Washington fans!
