Yet, I like that throughout the book she showed a full landscape of her emotions & how such emotions played out in her life. As a reader, though, I felt uncomfortable reading certain parts because of what and how it was disclosed. It's her book so she can do what she wants and I totally get that. It is understandable to a point but this is not the place to air such matters about whether yours or former employee so-and-so did a better job. She became less conversational and more confrontational, trying to prove a point. And the employment chapter, yikes! Her voice (as the writer) was consistent for the most part but in the employment part it hit a different note, so to speak. Some of the misses: I think Ashley may have repeated herself some throughout and definitely toward the end. I COULD GO ON AND ON HERE! Like I said before, I tweeted quite a few! #greatstuff || I had plenty of other reasons that I liked the overall book though! I thought it was easily approachable, conversational, and added GREAT tips & hints for the reader. Plus, I don't think it fits her image, personally. And I get what you are trying to say but it either needed to go further to show more idiot-ness or change the title. She said it plenty of times I just didn't believe her. So get your daily dose.Īs for the author's book, Sick Idiot, I didn't think the title fit the book and/or she didn't have enough 'sick idiot-ness' built into the book. It may be a cliche but for people living with pain every day: laughter can be the best of medicine. Laughter is something the author completely agrees with whether w/ friends and family or at the doctor's office (just not AT the doctor). Before you say isn't this a book review? (It is!!) I want to share some points w/ you.

It makes you grow.Fast! One thing I personally have learned is no matter what you gotta smile & laugh. I personally think it is harder than any college education. The tough stuff we experience in life, well, it serves as an education tough as it may be. Caregivers, too, of any age might find some wise nuggets of insight and advice throughout - in fact, I tweeted quite a few of her pearls of wisdom. 3.5/4 out of 5 -This is an approachable book for women from teens to young professionals and working mothers and patients dealing with unforeseen medical situations.
