Review of 'My Mess Is a Bit of a Life' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
3.5 stars
This book made me laugh, but it reads so quickly it’s easy to forget.
The structure of this book threw me for a loop because I was listening to it. If I’d been reading it on the page, the structure would have been obvious. Basically, Pritchett has collected dozens of short and very short anecdotes about her life. In the audio format, I think the longest was about 5 minutes and many were about one minute or less.
While giving laughs, the book is also poignant and sometimes sad. It provides real insight into life with anxiety, and I really appreciate that insight a great deal.
