About this listen
A bicultural child of a Malay mother and an Indian father, Amelia Zachry was different from the get-go, never quite fitting in. In this raw, inspiring memoir, she chronicles the long, winding journey that brought her from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to Kentucky, USA the place she and her family now call home.
Amelia was nineteen years old, her future wide open, when a fellow student from her Kuala Lumpur university sexually assaulted her. After that night, she felt sullied and convinced that what had happened was her fault. In the months and years that followed, she spiraled, first into isolation and then into promiscuity, as she attempted to try to take back some of the power that had been stripped from her that night.
Eventually, she met the man who would become her husband and greatest advocate, Daniel, and began to emerge from that dark place but even he couldn't fight her demons for her. In her late twenties, Amelia was diagnosed with PTSD and bipolar II disorder, both of which would go on to shape her adult life as an individual, a wife, and a mother.
A memoir of trauma and healing, mental illness and resilience, culture shock and new beginnings, devastation and triumph, Enough is one woman story of learning to make peace with the fact that things are as they should be, even if she sometimes wishes they were different and of discovering that however far away it may seem, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.

She has learned the hard way that even her high-profile marriage and Hollywood lifestyle can’t protect her from the pain she’s keeping bottled up inside. Facing divorce, the possibility of a custody battle, and the insistent voice of internalized racism that nags at her as a Black woman in a white world, Laura wonders just how much more she can take.

In this unflinching and riveting coming-of-age memoir, Patricia Grayhall battles sexism in a male-dominated profession. She plunges into a life that is never boring—and certainly never without passion. Tossed around in the rough seas of medical training, chronically exhausted and emotionally drained, Patricia chafes at the toxic masculinity of the culture of medicine facing many of the same issues women face in male-dominated fields today.

The first story Selma Blair Beitner ever heard about herself is that she was a mean, mean baby. With her mouth pulled in a perpetual snarl and a head so furry it had to be rubbed to make way for her forehead, Selma spent years living up to her terrible reputation: biting her sisters, lying spontaneously, getting drunk from Passover wine at the age of seven, and behaving dramatically so that she would be the center of attention. In a memoir that is as wildly funny as it is emotionally shattering, Blair tells the captivating story of growing up and finding her truth.

Painfully entitled
I unfortunately lost the will and any interest in hearing the rest of the book about 98 minutes in. The author describes how she was “betrayed “ by not being sent at her parents’ expense to college abroad in Australia (from Malaysia), when despite her parents years of saving efforts currency changes put the investment out of their reach (and there’s also a younger brother coming up behind her so presumably it would be expensive times two. Author waxes poetic about betrayal and lost dreams and how she had been “raised to be educated abroad “ and she “had done all of her part” by getting the grades to be admitted. Sending her to university in Kuala Lumpur is thus “betrayal “. For anyone who had to work to go to college and could not even begin to count on parental resources, this section may do a number on blood pressure.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
