Wonderful read

I so appreciate the raw authenticity of Jaycee’s story and how she weathered the raging storm of abuse she experienced for almost two decades. I love her pathway through healing and how she works to be an advocate to help others now. I really appreciated how the book began from a voice that felt very much like the 11-year-old telling her own story in real time then shifting into the adult who finally received freedom.

Please give me back the lost hours of my life!

Of all of the books that have been recommended to me in the last 2 years, this one was the most difficult to finish and my least favorite of all. I found the author difficult to sympathize with as she was overly hard on others trying to be there for her in a difficult time. She wanted to prove how stupid and foolish people are in the things they say as they try to comfort her, and she complained about the lessons they tried to teach her, as she breaks her own rule and preaches to the reader. Very egocentric thinking and writing. Her writing was also very pretentious, filled with an angry and negative energy. We get it, you are dying and aren't happy about it and no one understands. She spoke of herself and her experience as though she is a part of some special club that "gets it" because of what she's been through. We get how you sooo get it because you are dying at a faster rate than the rest of us. We get that your suffering gives you special leeway to be angry and miserable, but others should really button their lips to spare you more discomfort. Maybe people do say the stupid things they do more to comfort themselves then to really comfort you, but who gives a shit how they feel right? They aren't the ones who are dying, your thoughts and feelings should be considered foremost. I guess her entitlement to judge others rubbed me the wrong way, along with the book having no solid aim or purpose. Her inconsistencies of perspective and beliefs concerning what was happening in her life were very unsatisfying to trudge through. Overall I wish this book hadn't been reccomend to me, I hadn't invested money or time in it, and that I didn't have a personal standard of finishing every book I begin reading.

I loved this book, and had read in the past the subtle art of not giving a f***. I like the content as well as the humor used throughout the writing.
