Tiny beautiful things

Tiny beautiful things:  advice on love and life from Dear Sugar by Cheryl Strayed 353 pgs.

The advice contained in this book is a beautiful thing but I would not describe it as tiny.  Dear Sugar is an advice column on therumpus.net.  The writer is unpaid but for a time it was Cheryl Strayed, recently of the very popular "Wild: from lost to found on the Pacific Crest trail" fame.  An Oprah pick no less.  It seems that a lot of problems would get a "That is a rough one..." at the start of the reply but none of it seems to hard for Strayed to figure out.   She has a straight forward and logical view of everything and she is willing to share.  I started out reading just one "letter" at a time because some are pretty tough but then I could not stop reading.  I found this to be uplifting despite all of the people out there in need of advice and having terrible events litter their lives.
