I love this meditation on magic, parenting a child with a medical condition, and intimate partner violence for its honesty and bravery.

Hillary Leftwich doesn’t shy away from discussing traumatic events and her own decisions that left her life feeling unmoored and the magical pathways that helped her come back to herself. Fearless and insightful, this was one of my favorite memoirs in recent years.

From Alex's list on needing magic in your life.
