Ten Steps to Nanette: A Memoir Situation by Hannah Gadsby

I am so glad I chose to listen to the Audible of this book, because hearing it in Hannah's voice gave me the context clues I needed to interpret her story—I really struggle to understand inflection and tone, so I always go for the option of listening to the author when given it. It took me some time to get through, because the first couple chapters are just so long, and took a lot of time for me to process. Hannah's a few years older than I am, and I found her story very relatable—minus her more violent traumas—even growing up in small town America around the same time. I felt Seen listening to this one, and I appreciated the small doses of humor that break up the heaviness.
If you can, I think the audio is the way to go with this one. You'll be glad you did.
