Unravel Me by Becka Mack invites readers into a world where love, vulnerability, and second chances intertwine. I gave up on my MBA, dropped out of the Ivy League, and moved to Portland to pursue my dream of becoming an artist. What I still can't figure out is this: How is it possible that the single worst day of my life inadvertently became the very best day?
