Gonna out myself by saying I can relate to this story on some pretty visceral levels, because I've been there.I don't know how this book would read for someone without at least some intimate, relatable life experiences. Probably wouldn't have the same punch.This book was about me, and everybody in world, in all our horrible, wonderful, destructive, glorious, perverse, and shattered existence.It's about getting big again, as Mack said. Taking a stand against the gears that grind you to dust til you don't know whether you're coming or going.It's brutal and brilliant in its honesty, takes you by the scruff of the neck and makes you take a long hard look in the mirror, if you want to or not.One of the best books I've read. Certainly one that will stay with me, rattling around in my brain for years, hoping I can find the strength to grow again.
Great book and I got a good deal on it. Ordered it from another website & they said it was out of stock.
I called my cousin—with her permission—“Nurse Ratched.” (She was my caregiver during recovery from the first 100 days of cancer). Neither of us have read this book, so I downloaded it to see what it’s all about. What a sad ending, but you can tell it’s coming. Worth reading.
This particular book is small with an extremely small font. Not for the over 40 eye balls!
The story is so amazing and I loved it start to finish but it can be a little hard to follow at times.
