Amazingly Refreshing!

Jump right in! Forwards, backwards, anywhere's fine! I guarantee you'll read it at least 3 times and share it with at least as many friends.Kudos to Sonja for sharing such a delightful and wildly personal account of the moments of her life with the world. Moments. Snippets. A phrase snagged from the air and thrown onto paper. Thoughts. Associations. A peek at the gymnastics of the mind. Through pithy remarks, snappy one-liners, thought provoking collage work and ink blotty scribblyscrawlies, Sonja lets you in, in, IN. In where? Into her head. Read it more than once to pick up on the subtle threads weaving their way through what seems like voyeuristic chaos. Smart, honest and seemingly unedited, which, very simply stated, is the book's greatest charm. I'd love another serving....
