This is a book for anyone who has ever failed. Which means it's a book for everyone.
Yeah...no. I kind of, sort of have to disagree. I don't think it's particularly relatable because Day comes from a place of great privilege which many times played a role in the way she dealt with her various struggles. The average Joe & Joanna, or even more, people with financial great struggles won't have the luxury of the choices she was able to make. But it's not like she can help being this fortunate, can she? So I decided to take it for what it was: an okay memoir. I listened to it on audio and it felt like a long podcast.
This was a very, very good read. A litttle too talkative, and the chapter on failure with anger made me ... well, angry, but the book as a whole is very inspiring and a great follow up to the podcast of the same name by the author.
That me, 50-ish male could relate like this to a 39 year old female just proves the mystery of humanity. Read it!
