[quote=Anonymous]I agree with “not up to reading it” Just be vague. Don’t express any annoyance that she wrote it, which after all is her right… She’s allowed to write a memoir of her life with her family. Just never read it and say, if she asks, That you’re glad she produced some thing she finds meaningful but that at the moment you’re not up to reading it. Change subject. By saying you’re up to it now it leaves open the possibility that you might in the future and, again, will avoid any debates or arguments blah blah blah. Just repeat that until eventually she stops asking. But she really is within her rights to do this, and she can paint people in “a bad light” if that was her experience. As Anne Lamont, I believe, noted, if people wanted to be remembered warmly they should’ve behaved better. [/quote]
