As someone with BPD, it was so refreshing to see someone who has it, talk so candidly about it and how it affects the people who have it and those around us too. whilst this certainly wasn’t anything profound (i’ve read everything she wrote somewhere else before) i still recognise the value of this book, particularly for young readers, in acknowledging contemporary issues with social media, revealing the reality behind a seemingly ‘perfect life.
