She [Clair's mother] has built her sense of herself through these stories and at this stage - she's over ninety... questions aren't helpful. I ask them anyway, my sceptical, disenchanting questions. I go further and I actually check facts... Sometimes I come back to her with evidence that proves that what she remembers or what she heard can't have happened that way. She is never pleased about this. Yet she keeps feeding me stories.
Here's my #20ThingsAboutMe for #AuldLangSpine @Itchyfeetreader @monalyisha
I can expand on anything you have questions on.
pickA review 2 years in the making!😁I ran right out & bought it 11/23 ,I started flying through the early years & then stalled .I probably should have done audio, 900 pages,heavy ! Anyway, DONE.I did enjoy it , her perfectionist bent had me believing she still would go back & improve everything she‘s ever done! She has committed to many causes over the years , especially women‘s health, and the environment. And that voice, it will always my favorite
pickBrilliant! I wasn‘t expecting this book at all. I thought it would just be hilarious, but it made me love Miranda even more! It really spoke to me because I have just authored a workbook for awakening your wild woman and the language Miranda uses really aligned with me. The way she spoke and wrote felt like an intimate conversation with a close friend. It was helpful, comforting and hilarious. Thank you Miranda! I will gallop with you anywhere 💕
pickI wondered through this book if I‘d have the same empathy reaction to her book if I hadn‘t supported her in the beginning. It‘s not entirely a platform defining book, but an explanation of the gigantic lift it took to run a presidential campaign for 107 days. It humanized Harris- both her strengths and her flaws. It‘s a book to read and discuss, beyond her politics, but just the whole election that was so chaotic.

I love it! There are at least 3 books on here that I have read and loved which just tells me that @monalyisha nailed it yet again. I‘m so intrigued by the title of the tagged book. It might be one I read for January! 🎉
I love it when the author likes my review.
