A really beautiful and vulnerable memoir that’s 1/3 transitioning and coming out, 1/3 politics, and 1/3 touching love story.

While I don’t personally feel Sarah’s optimism and support of our political system, it is refreshing to see someone in the space who truly believes in its potential for good. And why shouldn’t she? She (and countless others along side of her) have fought for some big wins for trans equality.

At the end of the day, Sarah being an openly trans person in politics shows the future generations that it is possible to go after the things you want in life while being your true and authentic self, and I think that’s just beautiful.

Really great insight into the US politics around trans equality. Inspiring yet heart-wrenching story of love and loss. I felt like it got overly wordy at times, but the narrative thread pulled it all together well.

This book was incredible, and as a disabled transgender man in a relationship with a transgender person, it really resonated with me. Sarah was so eloquent in explaining so many pressing issues that affect transgender folks, all while telling a heartbreaking, beautiful story of her and her husband. Cannot recommend this book enough - it does come with a massive trigger warning for transgender folks, but in my opinion it was well worth it.

In 2022, I've become somewhat pessimistic about our ability to make change within the current political structures, but this book has given me some hope. Andy's death is a loss for Sarah and the world. The good both of them have enacted in their careers is incredible. Sarah voicing her own audiobook made it feel like she was telling a story to a friend.
