In this incredibly moving memoir, Sarah brings us through her life, her transition, and her work in trans equality. If what you want to hear is all the sordid details about Sarah's past when she wasn't living her true life, then move on because that's not what this book is about. Tomorrow will be Different is about Sarah's journey into the field of politics and finding her voice to speak up for the injustices set against the trans community.

I absolutely loved seeing how Sarah's political career started even before she went to college. Seeing someone so young have such passion for politics was incredibly inspiring. After reading this, I feel so invigorated to go and start a political movement or at least lend my support where it's needed. The title of this story really exemplified the hopeful tone of this book. Even though Sarah does discuss some events of and after the 2018 election, there is always a hopeful undertone. I still can believe that tomorrow will be different even if today isn't what I hoped for.

Another thing I loved was how much Sarah pointed out her privilege. While this is her story, she is very aware of the fact that many other trans men and women have a tougher journey than she did, before transitioning and after. I loved that she never marginalized anyone else's journey for the sake of her own throughout her narrative.

Sarah's relationship with her late husband Andy played a big role in her career and political aspirations. I loved seeing how they inspired each other and how deeply they loved one another. They dealt with extremely tough circumstances for people so young (Trigger Warning: Cancer, Cancer Treatment). I loved seeing the impact of the laws that both Andy and Sarah pushed in their respective fields. These two really made a difference in the fight for trans equality. There's always room for progress and I'm so glad these two were able to accomplish what they did.
