The first few chapters (BLOOD) were ROUGH for a vegetarian, let me tell you! But I got through the butchery and overall really enjoyed this. It reminded me a little of [b:The Glass Castle|7445|The Glass Castle|Jeannette Walls|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1400930557s/7445.jpg|2944133] meets [b:Relish: My Life in the Kitchen|15786110|Relish My Life in the Kitchen|Lucy Knisley|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1345686126s/15786110.jpg|21505033].

Sidenote: after I finished this I immediately googled to see if she and her husband had gotten divorced... apparently not. I wonder if he read this book??
