In her raw, emotional, yet hilarious memoir Untamed, Glennon Doyle recounts small victories and pitfalls in her life that have shaped her mindset and steered the course of her life. Through struggle and eventual healing, Doyle heart-wrenchingly leaves readers with advice based off her own experiences.
Voted “One of the Best Books of the Year” by Oprah and part of Reese Witherspoon’s book club, Untamed shows readers what happens when we stop trying to meet other people’s expectations and start living for ourselves. She uses personal stories of gender inequity, racism, divorce, parental struggles, and sexuality to trace her journey of becoming her authentic self. She asked herself “what [she] wanted instead of what the world wanted from [her].”
