And let me tell you. I had NO IDEA what I had gotten us into.
This book defies every genre you try and put it in.
I enjoyed it SO MUCH, way more than I thought I would based on the description. I'm so thankful my friend recommended it, and I will definitely be looking to her for more recommendations.

rorikae's review against another edition
4.0
This is a hard book as Miller discusses her struggles with mental illness and searching for meaning but it ultimately has a very hope filled conclusion. Miller presents a way to reframe how we see the world that has helped her find meaning and I found it to be very moving. She challenges the reader to look beyond what we take for granted to see how assumptions and even taxonomies can get in the way of discovering the beauty and complexity of life.
