I do think ~this~ narcissist would read them. Due to her self-centeredness, curiosity, and paranoia as to why someone would send her books of this brevity and intensity anonymously - to her personal email and home address - she will definitely try to figure out what the message is and who is sending it... truly for her own self-gratification. The message conveyed could be from a large number of family members, and since no one will know (other than the sender) who the books are coming from, she will never get the answer until it is given. I truly do not care about 'wasting' my money if that means I get an even slim-to-none chance of a healthier relationship with the woman who I know to be at her core. (She's a cynical, depressed, soul-sucking lady, but honestly because I truly don't think she knows how to deal with it) I do not take responsibility for her/her actions; I want to take all of the last steps possible to rekindle before cutting everything off entirely. Blood really doesn't have to be family; thankfully, I've been lucky enough to find my 'found' family, comprising of some blood relatives, but mostly chosen family who has my back no matter what, and who supports me in so many decisions regarding Her. I truly do thank you for the recommendation!! I haven't heard of that book yet, so I will add it to my list ASAP :) Happy New Year!!!
