It felt like a warm cup of tea made by someone who loves me. It''s a soft hug of a book, and it says ''It''s okay if you''re not okay right now.''

I hope you''ll try it." -- Smart Bitches, Trashy Books lishers Weekly "Throw out that depresso for this cozy cup of tea." -- BuzzFeed "I''m so pleased that this is the first of a series, and that there will be more of this world, because, wow, do I want more of it.
