sarahscott917 's review for:
4.5 stars. Not many 25 year olds would have experienced the joy and heartache that someone like Sarah has, but that's what makes her story so wonderful and worth reading. I appreciated her honesty about her struggles coming out as a transgender woman, I cried pretty hard when she stood by the love of her life while he struggled with terminal cancer, and I cheered as she reached so many milestones in her professional life. I kept having to remind myself that she's young and has so much more to come, and if her accomplishments to date are any indication, she's going to make big strides for transgender Americans.
The detailed sections about how she lobbied for transgender rights was a little too drawn out for me although I know how important and hard such work is. That's the only reason I'd lower my rating a little. I really loved how she'd talk about her life and relate it back to how the larger population of transgender people live. She's quick to point out her privilege, and I'm glad she's using that privilege to speak out for thousands of others who don't have a voice that's heard on such a large platform.
