I read (listened) Keri Blakinger’s book in two sittings. She describes the horror of incarceration while somewhat downplaying her own personal traumatic experiences (in and out of prison), which enlighten her will to expose and not ask for a pity party. The title is brilliant too!
It reminded me of so many people in prison, including my husband, who are going through the worst but still manage to get over that and be optimist. I even call it naivety at times but the truth is it’s resilience.
