Heart Berries: A Memoir by Terese Marie Mailhot
4.5

I cannot imagine the vulnerability and self-reflection it took to write this. Putting all the worst parts of yourself out there - both the worst things you have ever done and the worst things that have ever happened to you - without making excuses for them, is daring. I am really glad that I listened to the q&a with the author at the end of the book. She explains so much about her process, the intentionality behind her writing style, the reasoning for sharing everything she shared. It really changed how I viewed the book.
