This is such an honest book about one woman's experience with birth and post-partum depression. Ari has had a C-section and feels as if she did not really give birth to her son Walker. She is feeling alone, as she really doesn't have anyone who seems to understand her feelings about that, formula feeding, not getting any sleep and caring for her child.
The book is a little hard to read, as we are reading it like ambling thoughts that come into your brain and there is a lot of that. But isn't that how we all are? Just sometimes hard to follow.
