I found the set-up of the book to be perfect (the writing, the plot, the characters, etc.) (0 more)
A blatantly honest, gripping story about family.
"It blew me away. I found myself constantly highlighting quotes from it, stopping to think about how incredibly relatable it is. It is a book not only about death and grieving, but the ghosts that follow you throughout your life. Anne Enright speaks your innermost unspoken thoughts, and she does so unapologetically." -my bookstagram account, rorythereader.

I love this film I might not have been alive when it came out but I love it ❤️❤️It’s a film you now quotes from and a film to watch with whole family. The plot line and characters make the film so much better from the funny one lines to the chocolate bar they eat. I recommend this film to everyone one no matter how old or young you haven’t lived if you haven’t watched it at least once??

"I was shocked at the truths and magnificence of this biography; I didn’t think she (or anyone) had it in her. Throw all the Beats away: only the misunderstood colossus - Kerouac – remains. Who’s really read him, anyway? It’s all about that buffoon Cassady, and idiotic fanboy quotes… “the only ones for me are the mad ones” – yuck. Read the above for the real Weegee/Whitman ecstatic-horrific experience of genius, alcoholism, fame and the merciful, merciless Spirit that rules us."

Remember Who You Are exudes the love of Disney with every paragraph. Every chapter starts with a quote from an iconic film and quotes are hidden like easter eggs throughout the story.

Poppy's story could easily have been lifted straight out of a Hollywood rom com: it has sex, sass and suspense as well as an amazing best friend and men we love to hate.
What could be better? This story with the addition of a Disney castle of course!
