Craigslist Confessional: A Collection of Secrets from Anonymous Strangers by Helena Dea Bala

3.0

I thought this was going to be a five star read for me. A part of me loves prying into people’s lives, I’ll admit. I considered becoming a therapist at one point - secrets and helping people? Count me in.
Where this fell short was that it was so incredibly depressing. The stories started to run together. There were a few that were more uplifting, but I wish the author had distributed them throughout the book. By the time it ended, I was over the sad stories. I was hoping she’d tie everything together with some happier tales at the end, but that didn’t happen.
