This book is a deeply healing look inside what it means to be human and really FEEL. Hooks' work is extremely well written. She shows that being terse and exhaustive don't have to be mutually exclusive, but can be cohesive and easily digestible; Simultaneously it is poignant and inspirational. I recommend this book to anyone looking to live their life more freely and build more fulfilling relationships of all types: not just romantic but platonic and familial.
