This books is everything to me!!!!!!
It was written for me I know it.
For anyone who’s felt crazy, belittled, lost, and alone. Especially as a woman.
Bonus points if you’ve swam all your life and have a connection to water that every mention of it hits you deep.
I’ll be reading my highlights from this book forever.
