  • Grace Porter works harder than most people. She has to, as a queer, black woman in the astronomy field. Her whole life, she’s been planning for her dream career. She has been in school nearly her whole life, and now with her PhD. in hand, finding a job should be easy right? When she wakes up in Vegas to find that she’s married to a random girl, and doesn’t get the job her professor basically said she was a shoo-in for, Grace realizes she needs a break. She leaves her entire plan behind to truly get to know the woman she married - and herself. This book is about self-love, mental health, and finding your own place in the world. It’s about being okay with not being perfect, finding your family, and choosing who you want to be. 
  • I laughed. I cried. I'm still crying. This book was so well written and so relatable. This book will rip your heart out and sew it back together. ❤
