There is comfort in missing pieces (kinda)
Jenny Lawson (aka The Bloggess) once again hits the nail on the head (after a few misses due to cat hair) with her third memoir. You WILL laugh! You WILL *at least* tear up! You WILL wish that it was longer.
I also think, honestly, this is my favorite.
Lawson, who is open about her mental and physical health, has gained a massive following where people can laugh, cry, share their stories, and best of all, feel not so alone.
One thing that she mentions is that we (those who are "broken") leave little shards of our love everywhere we go, which some would say makes us incomplete but I think it means that even in our damaged state, we can give something that others need, deserve, and want; a piece of our story that makes the world a little easier to bear.
I do suggest the audio versions of Lawson's titles because her stories are just that much more relatable and it always feels like I am having a conversation with her, and I really like that idea.
