Skip the book…read the blog
There’s little point in reading the book, because the “Half of Me” blog has all the same musings – some identical to the book, as others have noted – and then some.

Horrible writing
Okay, the people who praised this book must be those who like the author’s blog……and maybe that’s good, but it certainly doesn’t translate well into a book.

This is a very real and inspirational book. I couldn’t stop reading it! Really great to see people who do it without surgery and to go through the struggle with them!
