"Forever isn't love's only ambition"

I loved this even more than Janet Mock's first memoir. This memoir is more intimate and personal. Janet details her early twenties which were filled with a wide range of experiences. She focuses less on her family than she did in her first novel, and this time more on herself and becoming an adult. It's clear how much growth she went through as a young adult that made her the self-assure, confident, and eloquent woman she is now. She also details her first marriage throughout this memoir, which is filled with a lot of love and heartbreak, as two people who clearly love each other realize they are just not meant to stay together. Mock is so compassionate towards Troy, and it reminds me a lot of her writing about her parents in her first memoir (although Troy seems to have been a bit more of a supportive and doting on her).

Also, I deeply enjoy having Mock's books on audio. Her voice is ridiculously soothing and meditative.
