Counting the Cost by Jill DuggarMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
i wasn’t expecting to connect with this book at all, but parts of counting the cost hit home. jill’s honesty about complicated family dynamics and the role religion played in her life felt surprisingly relatable. i found her writing about those dynamics really interesting… jill explained blindly following, partially agreeing, questioning authority and beliefs, completely disagreeing and coming to her own conclusions, and finally standing up for herself.
it’s unexpected, raw, thoughtful, and gave a lot of insight into what she went through behind the scenes. this memoir is not a literary masterpiece by any means, but her transparency genuinely surprised me.
