Aww Didion this is make me sad

Chapter 18

I'm DNF'ing this. I feel bad about it. I really like Joan's writing style, and the parts about her daughter--about her doubts concerning how good of a mother she was--are especially poignant. But so much of it consists of anecdotes about her writing career, living the high life in Hollywood, and working with celebrities. It's also a bit jumbled. I wanted to love this and thought I would, but it's just not for me.

I’m not a mother or I don’t plan on being one but this hurts
