I struggled to get through this title. It didn't grab my attention in the way that I thought it would. I feel like I learned more about the public figures that Laurel wrote letters to (Kurt Cobain, Amy Winehouse, Janis Joplin, etc.) than about Laurel herself, until the very end of the book when a lot of information was given to the reader about her past. The book had some profound, make-you-think moments, but it ultimately wasn't for me.
