  • executive director dougy center

    “Mandy’s stellar writing, candor, and humor manages what many memoirs don’t—truth-telling without bashing the reader over the head with feel-good-isms. I can’t recommend it highly enough!”

    – Donna Schuurman, Executive Director Emeritus, Dougy Center: The National Grief Center for Children & Families

  • “For anyone who’s experienced the loss of a loved one as a child, this is a must read. I felt so validated in seeing my feelings and experiences echoed in Mandy’s. It really made me self-reflect on how I’ve processed (and not processed) grief throughout my life. The ending line floored me. I read it over-and-over when I finished while tears welled up.”

    – Matthew Brand

  • “A beautiful and honest look at the journey of depression. It is a portrait of how holding in your feelings can strangle you. I loved reading.”

    – Dixie Perkinson, actor and writer
