My favorite thing about Abby Jimenez books is that I always know I'm in for an emotionally rich/intelligent book. She really digs into the emotions that drive mundane everyday life, both the joys and the sorrows. Once again, I found myself more drawn ...more | |

"I liked this - my favorite stories were the superheroes, the wedding, and the play one. Mixed bag, but liked more of the stories than not. I liked the mix of readers for the audiobook as well."

I want an excuse to change my life.”

“People ask me, “Have you tried yoga? Kombucha? This special water?” And I don’t have the energy to explain that yes, I’ve tried them. I’ve tried crystals and healing drum circles and prayer and everything. What I want to try is acceptance. I want to see what happens if I can simply accept myself for who I am: battered, broken, hoping for relief, still enduring somehow. I will still take a cure if it’s presented to me, but I am so tired of trying to bargain with the universe for some kind of cure. The price is simply too high to live chasing cures, because in doing so, I’m missing living my life. I know only that in chasing to achieve the person I once was, I will miss the person I have become.”
