A memoir about unforgettable men, mistakes, and meals. |
Social media is so cool! I came across Emily Belden when she commented on one of my posts.
You may remember Emily Belden from a few weeks ago when she was our Woman Crush Wednesday! I ordered the book for my birthday and just recently finished it. The book culminates when Emily turns 25- so how fitting I read it in my twenty-fourth year.

Each chapter Emily gives you the highlights of the lessons you're supposed to look out for and walk away with! Eighty-sixed is a lot like your favorite course guide for a class- you have no interest in taking but have to to graduate.

Through Emily's struggles, I learned quite a few things- the main thing- the importance of knowing and loving yourself because that's your #1 relationship in life and after that you can and will find love.
Be that a man, woman, friends, a job or a hobby- like traveling or food.
Emily's struggles feel like your own and her triumphs feel like yours too.
A Must! |
