it was ok
bookshelves: will-she-ever-finish

I cannot in good faith recommend. Though I appreciated the author's message, ultimately, I struggled with the format, the sea of quotes and excerpts, and relating it back to the section's concept. Tbh it whooped my ass and was frustrating; I did feel my eyes glaze over while trying to find the connecting point. Maybe adderall would've helped me focus.

I started and stopped this several times, in part because I was adjusting to the memoir-style examination. I had an expectation of what the book would be like and I had to pivot, which was fine. I'd definitely try novels or poetry by them, but I wanted [more concise] investigative journalism from the title & byline I guess
