emotionally challenging!! clear, concise and loving text.
i've been reading and re-reading this book for more than a month. on any given day i only have the emotional depth and strength to handle bits and pieces.
certainly is a life-changing/self-help/true-crime/etc. exploration.
i'm fortunate to have a partner with whom i can share my feelings -- without a reflexive disgust for my "weakness".
yet, my transformation is a challenge she hasn't been able to withstand without some confusion -- and its attendant disharmony.
