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.

This book gave me all the feels: laughing, crying and admiration! Hiding For My Life, (wow Karen... just wow, from a proud cousin)!
We are invited into her world with a raw honesty and bravery that is truly inspiring. This book is not just her story; it's a testament to resilience, courage, and the power of being true to oneself.
From the very first page,she shares her journey of navigating life in the navy as a gay woman, drawing you into her life of camaraderie, conflict, and personal triumphs.
Karen's journey is uniquely hers, yet it resonates with anyone who has ever struggled to live authentically, being gay or straight! Her story is a powerful reminder of the bravery it takes to be true to oneself, no matter the obstacles or sexual preference.
Her time in the navy, dealing with both being accepted and discriminated against, shows what it's like to be different in a strict military environment.
What makes this autobiography special is Karen's unyielding optimism and belief in the power of love and community.
Reading Hiding For My Life, I felt a deep sense of admiration and gratitude for my cousin, Karen. Her courage to live openly and authentically in the face of challenges is an inspiration.
Thank you, Karen, for sharing your journey with us. Your story is a gift to the world, and it will inspire many to live their truth, just as you have.
