Well - its a true story, so the discussion might be a bit different than normal!

Is it just me, or is there something weird about the writing? Maybe it is because a lot of it was compiled from her notes after her death.

What seems to keep happening is in the middle of a paragraph after she describes something, it jumps back to before that thing happened. Then the next few paragraphs lead back up to when that thing happened.

I am making it through that but it keeps throwing off my groove!

Same...
I feel like she jumps around and then comes back around and I don't know how it connects, but it is all still interesting.
It makes it hard to keep a linear storyline in my head about how this all went down.
She writes a lot about her life.
