“do better for you not better for me”
This collection follows the author’s struggles from childhood into adulthood. As the author wrote, “I wrote this for me. I made this for you,” and it reads that way, beautifully. I enjoyed the movement through life and pain, specifically dealing with family and parents’ shortcomings. I appreciated the connotation that we can all identify with one another’s pains, even if they’re completely different.

3.5 out of 5 stars
There is some gorgeous writing in this book. However at times, the writing fell flat for me (but it might be the depression I live with who knows). I overall enjoyed the book but moments that I almost put the book down just because it was going slow.

Heart aches
My heart is broken for the one that wrote this but also for me because she spoke and wrote of what we both see.
