Letters to My Daughter-Maya Angelou

I couldn't not read it. My mom gave it to me. And while I have nothing against Maya Angelou, she's not my favorite. However, it was actually a really comforting read, the kind of thing you take to bed with you along with a cup of cocoa or some chicken soup. Maybe the sort you suggest to your girlfriends who are going through rough times. Needless to say, very female oriented. Probably not the greatest guy read ever. Inspirational, and surprisingly genuine and relatable. Not that Angelou isn't generally genuine and relatable. It's just that usually when someone gives me advice, it doesn't really feel applicable, whereas this did.
