nadia 's review for:
Crying in the Bathroom
by Erika L. Sánchez
emotional
reflective
medium-paced
Despite listening to her narrate her own story, it took me a little bit of time to feel connected to Sánchez and this memoir. Eventually I got really into it and I appreciated the discussions around identity, mental health, motherhood and pregnancy, beauty standards, racism, relationships, crafting a career, and more. Throughout it all, Sánchez was unflinchingly honest and vulnerable, which added to the memoir's impact and relatability.
