Why read it?
1 author picked My Family Divided as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
To be honest, I first picked up this book because I loved this author’s character in Orange Is the New Black.

This memoir manages to find that sweet spot of sincerity and honesty coupled with quirky sarcasm and humor. The author’s account of struggling with mental health was particularly relevant and memorable to me.
From Shelly's list on girl MCs who are owning life.
