冯 梦媛 70921431697dd — This book has its strong points: the fact that it offers an unapologetic, unflinching look into life as a depressed young woman in America, for example. Additionally, Wurtzel's writing style is insightful and interesting and pulls no punches. The book shows her battle with depression as part of a larger, social phenomenon - the alarming rise in the number of young people, "full of promise" who are struggling with this illness, or are already on antidepressants. As someone who has dealt with bouts of depression myself, I could relate to a lot (but certainly not all) of what Wurtzel went through. Yet there are many times when the narrative deteriorates into self-indulgent emotional hemorrhaging for pages at a time. After the first four or five chapters - I got the point. She's depressed, she needed help that was not forthcoming. The next 75-80 pages is just overkill. But Wurtzel herself asserts that she MEANT for the book to be annoying at times, because that is what it is like, having a depressive in your life. It's annoying. In any case, I'd advise readers to read the first four or five chapters and the last two, plus the afterward, at least. I don't regret reading it, but I don't think I'd read it again.

Andrey Batista andreybatista — This book was a great dose of reality for the moms of today. Constantly feeling guilty about EVERYTHING has been an aspect of motherhood that surprised me, and it was so refreshing to read a book where the moms are not all supermoms. I will definitely keep this book on hand for the years to come as it addresses ways to prioritize, how to say no to decisions that ultimately don't benefit your family, how to deal with the crippling guilt of motherhood, and it even gives you permission to laugh at the craziness that comes with kids. "Our generation of mom feel like they have to be perfect. When I have conversations with my mom, she'll say, 'Getting angry happened weekly, if not daily, when I was a mom, and you're not scarred, are you? You have this vision of being so perfect, but you are HUMAN, and you need them to understand that you make mistakes, so they realize that it's okay to make mistakes, too.'" p.79 "We feel guilt all the time over circumstances we can't control. We feel guilty when another child snubs our child. We feel guilty when it's too cold or too rainy to go outside to play. And these are all things that are out of our control, so nip this kind of thinking in the bud, and give yourself a break." p.95

Youssef Rahoui contact2c38 — I loved this book. I always love Jodi Picoult books and this one didn't disappoint. I thought the subject matter of 'wrongful birth' was a little disturbing, but Picoult always handles difficult subject matter well. I sometimes had a hard time liking the character of the mother, but then there would be times that I thought she was trying to do what was best for her daughter. I was often torn. Great book.

Guo Yujing summer_ux — I read this because I had read its prequel a while ago, but I was kinda disappointed. I thought it was even a bit cliche. I wouldn't recommend it.

Nicole Nasteff nicolenasteff — Tiffany Aching is apprenticed to Miss Treason, a wicked old witch indeed. She is trying her best to learn how to be a witch and how to be a woman. In a moment of thoughtless clarity, she inserts herself into a dance and comes to the attention of the Wintersmith. The heartless will yearn, the divine will slumber, and Tiffany will grow up as a result. This is probably my favorite of the Tiffany Aching books. Tiffany's interaction with the Wintersmith and her fellow witches, the unfairness of her predicament, her determination to do the right thing, in the midst of her own troubles, make the novel tight and Tiffany herself admirable. Pratchett's notions of right and wrong, idealistic and pragmatic, provide the moral background for the witches and their application thereof is both compassionate and frightening. Wheels within wheels aptly describes Mr. Pratchett's work and that is doubly the case with this novel.
