this was exactly what i needed right now. i really loved this book! it’s such a solid piece of self-exploration with honest anecdotes to keep you turning pages. i felt understood in some sections, and yet felt completely out of my depth and as if i was learning something new and important in others. the writing is easy to read and introspective throughout. i highly recommend this if you are in the mood for something short and beautifully told. it’s not perfect, but it was a great reading experience.
