Enough Already: Learning to Love the Way I Am Today

I'm in the same life space as Valerie Bertinelli, so I read her latest memoir with interest. The grief of losing her parents and losing her ex-husband prompted some introspection.
She concludes that she has to stop obsessing about her weight and to learn to embrace the joys in life with gratitude and kindness toward others. Her kindness is expressed through cooking. (We're almost twins!)
The passages about her son and ex are all quite touching and I agree with her new approach to the next 20 years (plus or minus) of her life. However, I found the book much too repetitive to be enjoyable. I ended up skimming until I found passages of interest.
There are some sweet photos at the end. We were all so much younger then!

I have always liked her. She seems to be a case of "what you see is what you get."
