Reader’s Note
7 out of 10
funny in the way we are funny at four in the morning, which is to say not really. I laughed a lot and then got very angry, mostly because none of it has changed! the footnotes are the best part of it

Wild reviewed by @nightshiftnurse
I wanted to like this more than I did. the boots, the grief, all fine, but I kept snagging on the amount of it thats a woman being wildly unprepared and getting away with it. maybe that's just jealousy on my part6 out of 10Wild
