I didn't love the story this told, but it was very real, open and honest of the author. I wish they could have ended with a complete acceptance of themselves and who they are... which I get isn't always how life works. But I feel like maybe if they had given it 10 more years before writing this they could have more insights and conclusion to offer and perhaps a bit more transparency with less defensiveness. I get it, but it was just hard to read and left me feeling like there wasn't much to take away from the experience.
