Annie’s Reviews > Committed: On Meaning and Madwomen > Status Update

read yesterday and didn’t update, that’s what this is.

We broke up, so I couldn’t read, save for easy books for some time. But I’m back to it now and I’m glad I am. Reading this in the mountains.

I heard a collision almost occur near the spot Nicholas’s father was killed as I logged this.

I was telling the boyfriend last night, she writes extremely similar to how I imagine I would write if I were an author, and I cannot tell if I'm enthralled or disgusted by this. The last paragraph I read was so embodying that it made me feel a bit sick. Girlhood really is universal, no matter what way you slice it.

Honesty and realism flanks every sentence. I’m trying to not let it turn me off… I’m trying to look for the elegance in it. Either way, I do feel seen, as per usual.
