5.0
As a daughter of a mother who was a constant Facebook user (not to ruby’s extent but definitely a frequent sharenter) who often made me repeat scripts and take pictures and videos, this book made me feel very seen. I liked the way it written. Shari told her story while also allowing a space for readers to reflect and connect with their own experiences.
