This is a quick, witty, and comical memoir written by someone who aside from being a Vegetarian, I think we’d be friends.

Raised in a pretty religious family where he was subjected to the constraints of church and strict parents; Zach Zimmerman talks about his growth and changes he’s made as an adult to be uniquely himself. 

While my family was nowhere as strict as his, there were a lot of things I related to when it comes to struggling with your sexuality and coming to terms that you might be the thing church said you’ll go to hell for. Oh well ;)

I also related to his experience in regards to being present at a family function where not only is your identity an elephant in the room, but also your political stance that differs from almost everyone in your family. 

Nothing philosophical or world-changing here, however, it’s a good account of what it’s like just trying to navigate your life and the changes being an adult brings.
