#128 of my year and after this only 1 more to go 🥳🥳🥳 gonna try to cram in as many as I can hehehe this year has been so wonderful and full of great adventures!

Caffeinated_Reader Holy cow! That ending was shocking. I did NOT see that coming. I thought it was shocking to find out who the mom was. But damn. So crazy.

The overall flow of this story was brilliant. I loved how the struggle to become who one was meant to truly be was constantly being fought. In the end the characters were stronger for everything they were felt and over came. I look forward to the next book for sure!

No no no no no. I was quite enjoying this until the most recent chapter which was super problematic and offensive to people with disabilities. So much so, especially in the audiobook version where Haddish does this horrible voice, that I cannot continue reading this. I'm surprised to see so many positive reviews that don't even MENTION this as a caveat. Really disappointing.

britt_brooke This part is absolutely atrocious. 7y
Eyelit Wow. Thanks for the heads up! That‘s disappointing. 7y
Notafraidofwords I have to say, I am not a fan of hers. I saw an interview with her that completely turned me off. 7y

skyeharmony Oh no!! I hadn't heard anything about that. So upsetting. (I'm like #128 on hold for this audiobook at the library...) 7y
CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian @britt_brooke How did it make it past the editing and audiobook production processes?? I mean, I guess I know why: ablism. 7y
CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian @Notafraidofwords I have liked her in the twoovies of hers I've seen but hadn't seen any interviews or knew anything about her as a person before this. 7y
CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian @skyeharmony yeah, I'd def rec passing on this one 7y
silentrequiem I just looked this up and 🤮😡🤬 7y
Notafraidofwords @CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian In the interview she talks about becoming sort of a pimp and enjoying the woman whose she is using for money to be the one having sex with two different men at the same time because this woman took her boyfriend. It just felt so wrong and I can‘t forget it. 7y
Nuwanda This one made me so uncomfortable I returned it to Amazon for a refund. I got on here to see if I was the only one, and I am glad to see I‘m not. 6y
Jess7 I‘m really bothered by the voice too 6y

2017 #128 NF audio interesting concept and supporting evidence. I really enjoyed the sections on raising children and corporate identity. I think I would like to reread but in text form for slower digestion.
