Why read it?
1 author picked Brave Enough as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I’m recommending this book because I laughed a lot, cried some, underlined, stopped mid-page to think about what I was reading, and hated when it ended. There is one idea per page, easy to read, put down, and go on with your life and come back hours or days later.
I collect quotes, and there were many to savor: “Vulnerability is strength.” “Ask yourself: What is the best I can do? And then do it.” I feel more authentic, compassionate, and courageous after reading this book—and reading it again!
From Jane's list on aging.
