I happened to watch a few of the interviews posted on YouTube about her book release. That really helped put the book into context. You have to keep in mind while reading this that these are from her journal entries and she is hurt, angry, and processing everything she has been through. Keeping that in mind helped me through this book. I'm also not one who swears so the language I found startling. Particularly in the beginning, when her voice is most volatile. It's also interesting to read this in light of Josh Murray "number twenty-six" having broken up with another fiancé... or she broke up with him. Upon viewing some of the interviews of Andi, there were also the break up reports posted on YouTube, and I believe her name is Amanda, stated something to the effect of "you get to a point and you realize there are things that you either can or cannot work on, and there were things that were just not going to improve in our relationship". Yes girl, I know that's code for "I went through exactly what Andi did." Also, this book hit home in that my parents had a really negative relationship and my dad was always making terrible comments to both my mom and I. It brought up tough, old feelings, but also solidified that some people are toxic and cannot be a part of ones life.
