this book was gifted to me by a friend and I really had to push through. in the afterword the author mentions being able to utilize any stray thought in this book and it definitely comes across that way. I'm not big on essays and this felt like essays meets poetry with illustrations thrown in.

Some pieces on anxiety and loneliness did feel very relatable. would recommend this for neurodivergent, children of immigrants, or rain cloud personalities. I think they would resonate a lot more.
