A Book of Common Prayer by Joan Didion

I WILL BE HER WITNESS.

See kimberly’s 6 books with notes and highlights…

“The effort of putting words to my experiences, of trying to describe things as accurately as possible, felt like it was saving my life. One sentence at a time, I was writing my way to an understanding and a grace I could not otherwise reach. I breathed power into a new life for myself and also slowly started to make sense of what I'd never been able to before.”
― Laura McKowen, We Are the Luckiest: The Surprising Magic of a Sober Life

“I could not count the times during the average day when something would come up that I needed to tell him. This impulse did not end with his death. What ended was the possibility of response.”
― Joan Didion, The Year of Magical Thinking
