I'm not sure it took courage, but it is certainly quite a ride tagging along as Wendy fights her demons and seeks, well, if not true love, then at least truth.<br/><br/>Hey Wendy, I want to he...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/18614301">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I got this book for free, as an unedited, pre-release book.  I didn't expect much - but WOW I really enjoyed it!  She tells stories about her life that seem superficial and then all of a sudden, she comes out with some amazing insight and you realize how deep she has been being.  ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Sucky. She describes herself doing the same stupid self destructive things over and over and over, and peppers the whole thing with AA cliches. The most well written parts had to do with her coping with her mom's tragic death--that would be a better book, I think.]]></body>
