What a lady, this felt like a dream

I had listened to feedback about this memoir and thought it might be too demanding of my own understanding. Lena has always attracted the harshest criticism and so I decided to give it a listen.
I was spellbound. Lena’s writing is beautiful, she’s unnerving in her own self-criticism but I feel that she sees this world in a unique way. Her story demanded nothing of me but my time, it truly is my favourite book of this year. I was entertained for the entire time and honestly I felt a range of emotions. I love her for this book. It’s brave and raw and honest and so refreshing. I’m going to rewatch Girls too.

I didn’t want this to end.

Loved hearing Lena’s voice quiver , her smile , her pain, sorrow and joy. What an honest and intimate memoir .

Bloody loved it

Lena is an exceptional writer. A raw and honest recount of her life, which has been far from easy, told with self reflection and vulnerability.

What a journey

I was so looking forward to this memoir and wasn’t disappointed. Binged it over a few days. In many ways I’m not Lena’s demographic I was in my 40’s when Girls came out but adored it and all her other work. She is reflective, kind and very honest in her writing. One of those rare times where I wish I could tell the author in person how much I respect their work. I look forward to listening again.

Loved every word
