I am reading it and I am not I am not enjoying it as I thought I should and would.

I will probably be in the minority since many have raved and highly rated this memoir. I am trying to convince myself to overlook the very things I find objectionable. The reveries of the past and the countless repetition of her mother's death and that book she keeps mentioning over and over has me rolling my eyes.

I don't lack empathy at all, I can relate to her sense of loss and mourning but the way it is being dealt with and perhaps the style of the writing has put me off.

I also don't appreciate the use of foul language too much or promiscuity, infidelity, drug addiction Lol! That's a lot.
