Historia
Karen Solt, an eighteen-year-old nonconformist with an alcohol problem, is working at a gas station when a slick Navy recruiter railroads her into enlisting in the military. Before she knows it, she is on a ship in the Deep South, struggling to navigate not only a world much different from her small Northern Arizona hometown, but also her new discovery: she’s gay.

At first, I honestly wasn't sure if I liked an author reading their own memoir simply because they're probably not a professional narrator. Turns out I found this incredibly beautiful. My favorite part of the audiobook is Part III and I read it a couple times. The story was palapable and this is where i felt the closest to the memoir.
I love this. It's so special. And at the risk of sounding like the millennial I am, it's given me ALL the feels. Days after finishing your book I'm still reflecting on these pages. I realized immediately that I held a deep sadness that this is a true story and a profound hope that the aspirations of freedom and flexibility of my generation will come to fruition. Truth, courage, and vulnerability are all over these pages. Thank you for bringing awareness to my open heart and knowledge to spaces that simply just didn't know. I was once close with the Navy community in San Diego and it was both refreshing and heartbreaking to learn about aspects of this culture through your eyes. This is a MUST read and I will continue to recommend this memoir to my peeps. I know I can be a better human as I take your incredible story and message with me as I try to find my own way beyond hiding and navigate the world.
