I was really interested in this book after seeing a bunch of people I follow review early copies and I think that unfortunately raised my expectations. As someone with BPD I understand first hand what it's like to have a very misunderstood and villainized mental illness, and I enjoyed seeing the author talk about that alongside the feeling of being alone in her diagnosis. The thing that really lowered my enjoyment of this was simply the fact that I didn't like the author. Which is super disappointing (and a little annoying) considering this is a memoir. I was interested in understanding more about what it means to be a Sociopath, simply because almost everything you find in the media about it is negative or blown out of proportions. Overall, I had an alright time reading this and I wish I didn't see so many raving reviews of it so I could've kept my expectations low.






Thank you to Simon & Schuster for providing me with an eBook copy to review on NetGalley
