Blurb (from Amazon): "For more than a decade, thousands of people have sought advice from Dear Sugar—the pseudonym of bestselling author Cheryl Strayed—first through her online column at The Rumpus, later through her hit podcast, Dear Sugars, and now through her popular Substack newsletter. Tiny Beautiful Things collects the best of Dear Sugar in one volume, bringing her wisdom to many more readers. This tenth-anniversary edition features six new columns and a new preface by Strayed. Rich with humor, insight, compassion—and absolute honesty—this book is a balm for everything life throws our way."

Opinion: I enjoyed the book Wild and the movie based on it. I did not know much of Strayed's writing history so I wasn't aware that she was an advice columnist. Most of the advice I agreed with. Overall a heartwarming, straight to the point, book.
