Tiny Beautiful Things: Reese's Book Club

Don’t read this book any time or place you’re not prepared to ugly cry. A real, raw, unafraid look at hard truths and how to live with them.

So raw and real hard to step away from so sad it’s over I’d like to write my own letter to Cheryl

Hard to read. Impossible to put down.

I was sad when this book was over. I was deeply connected with every word written on these pages.

So much vulnerability, I felt like the stories of my life were being posted on each page. Lessons hard won and painfully clear!

Such a great book. I’m so thankful to have stumbled upon it. Thank you, Cheryl!

This book was just average for me. I expected to love it, but it fell short for me. This book was recommended to me. The stories are heartwarming, and it’s well written, but not for me. I found the book boring and most of the advice sections were just too long. Most of the stories were also unrelatable for me. Just not my style.

My sister recommended this book to me after it was recommended to her by a mutual friend. I had never heard of or read anything about Cheryl Strayed/Dear Sugar, which ended up being a wonderful thing. This book blew me away. Yes, there were uncomfortable parts, and depressing parts, and downright terrible parts, but there were also hopeful and courageous parts, and parts that made my heart a little lighter. Sometimes I got teary eyed and other times I downright ugly cried. This book really had it all and was one of my best reads this year. I loved how the book was broken down into sections and I enjoyed pacing myself through the different "stories". I can definitely see the draw of Strayed's writing style. She is no nonsense and in your face. She is the friend we all need who will give it to you straight and either hold you as you cry or push you to be the person you know you can be. No, I would not follow her advice in every situation, but I liked that I was given the other side of the coin. A viewpoint that I may not have considered in those situations. I have never highlighted a book as many times as I did this one. Every piece had a gem to uncover and I found Strayed's frank honesty refreshing. I will say, that the book may not be for everyone considering the subject matter discussed in some of the pieces and the language used.

Amazing book! I've been recommending it to everyone I care about.

I will quote this book for the rest of my life.
