Most, most excellent audio CD. Kim narrates with precision and surprises with occasional humor when you least expect it. A very moving and traumatic and ultimately rewarding tale, worth the time.
This was rather depressing. The author basically gives a litany of the things that have gone wrong in her life. I kept expecting things to get better, for her to make some breakthrough, but it really doesn't happen. Yes, her life improves, yes, she is doing better now, but the book is completely and utterly depressing. Reading the last few chapters felt like listening in on her sessions with a shrink; they were all about expressing everything you feel, regardless of the consequences. I usually recommend books to my Dad when I finish them ⦠this one went right back onto PBS.
Such a sad, beautiful and inspiring story.
