Review: Healing, pure, honest guidebook for twenty-somethings - Oh my goodness, where to start.... so I discovered this book randomly and was intrigued. Honestly, after reading this I feel like Chloe and I are best friends. She is relatable and honest and you just can't put this book down. The most memorable part of reading this book was when she was talking about buying candles at TJ Maxx and like randomly spending two hours there debating about buying sheets and then realizing that it would be ridiculous to buy $50 sheets for no reason whatsoever. This is SO accurate to life in your twenties. And going into her parents' home with a backpack to steal food and toilet paper. LITERALLY did that the day before I read that part hahaha. She hits the nail on the head with what it feels like to be a newly-minted "adult" just trying to figure out life and purpose. It honestly could have been such a surface-level book but the way Chloe writes and digs deeply into her emotions just resonates so powerfully within my soul. Oh my goodness, this is such a cleansing read for any single twenty-something or thirty-something because it is just so honest and pure. Her words brought me to tears at certain points. With her best friend, Nat, for example. The recollection of their experiences and then the events at his wedding. I was crying during this part because sometimes you don't realize how rare a relationship is until later in life when you realize all relationships simply aren't like that. After reading this, I feel closer to the core of humanity and what matters in life and at the end of the day. Chloe has a gift of writing about what could be interpreted as small things in life, but she makes them extravagant. Chloe, thank you for this book. It has been healing for my soul.
Review: Honest and vulnerable. - Chloe’s essays had me unable to put the book down-eager to see what the next one was about. Some I related to, some I didn’t at all, but it was fascinating to be in her head during those particular essays that I personally had no experiences to compare it to.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Chloe Caldwell is my Miki Howald
*by L***N on September 29, 2016*

When I opened this book yesterday to read the introduction, I felt like a friend was confiding in me. That's because Caldwell's work is so personal, so intimate, her words read like the disclosure of secrets in a very relateable and approachable way. Her writing style is hilarious and evocative and observational. I often caught myself smirking at her humor and then a few minutes later grabbing a pen to underline a few sentences that gut punched me right in the feels. I discovered Chloe Caldwell's books and essays online about a year and a half ago have been waiting for this collection of essays to be published and man, 'I'll Tell You In Person' is an intense pleasure to read. She is so damn self aware in "Prime Meats" & "The Hungry Ghost" and "Yodels" felt like I could have written it myself if I was anywhere near as good as Caldwell is as a writer. She writes about her love relationships, a subject she embraces with the same depth and beauty that she does when she is writing about addiction, family, and friendship, and I just love this about Chloe Caldwell's work. Her writing in this collection is full circle lovely on so many levels. Reading this essay collection shows me on a deep level who she is as a sister, a daughter, a best friend, and a vulnerable woman letting go in a relationship. If this is the first book you buy by Chloe Caldwell, get ready to fall in love and quickly buy her other books. If, like me, you've been waiting for this book to be published, be prepared to see the growth in her writing, her style, her existence.
