    “Hope Jahren’s memoir is so singularly her story and her brilliant scientific voice that it becomes universal. She loves plants and she seeks friendship. I remember listening to the audiobook on the metro and hearing her description of her experience of entering mental illness, and it was beautiful and I thought yes, everyone, come read.”
