i received an arc from netgalley and the publisher!

normally, i wouldn’t go for a self-help book, but i requested an arc for this one because it is drew. i ended up really enjoying it! from what i understand, drew did not use a ghostwriter for this, but her writing was actually pretty good. i also think the length of this book makes it accessible to people that may not consider themselves readers. even so, there were some things i wish she had elaborated on. she often references “the universe” but she doesn’t really go into what that means to her or what she means by it. i also think the body neutrality chapter should have been longer because she talks about the concept of body neutrality but doesnt give examples of how to practice it, which i think would have been helpful. the chapter about being mean also could have used some elaboration, in my opinion. she says that it is okay to be mean, but she doesn’t elucidate why, and i wanted to hear her perspective on that. i did like the chapter titles, though.
