I think Chrissy has an amazing personality. I love her positivity and how she LOVES herself! But this book…it wasn’t my favorite. While I adore Chrissy, I struggled with this book. She spends a lot of time talking about her childhood trauma, and the perpetrators are still very much present in her life. There are points where I felt she excused their behavior–which isn’t okay. Those who are in this situation may feel like they just have to endure it and forgive them. I just can’t agree with that mentality. Now, it worked for Chrissy, but it just rubbed me the wrong way. I read and listened to this one on audio read by Chrissy herself. First, I love her as Kate on This Is Us, and that she was so brave to tell her story. I'm glad I read the book and passed it on to others at work. I only know that I was transported by someone in a white van who drove 6 hours and 37 minutes to get me here. I know I was handcuffed to my seat. I know I was strapped to my chair. I know my parents never bothered to say good-bye. I know I didn’t cry as I was taken away. Things became a bit easier when her mother married Chrissy's stepfather (she calls him 'Trigger'), but then he began systematically abusing Chrissy. My kids enjoy answering their questions and comparing with each other what they have written. I love that it gets them writing and thinking in a different way.
In This Is Me by Jamie Lee Curtis, a teacher tells her students the story of her great grandmother coming to The United States. In telling this story, the teacher emphasizes how her great grandmother could only take a few things and had to decide what was truly important to her. From this story, students in the class are lead to discuss what is important to them and what they would bring if they were in this situation. Restore Me is full of plot twists and surprises to keep readers on their toes, and the deepening relationship between Juliette and Warner adds a hint of romance to the intense narrative. It was true. Alma was blonde. She was good with hair, had the top bunk in a real bedroom and still thought Santa was right enough. Alma would get on just fine. This printable is available in our members area.
