The Family Outing: A Memoir door Jessi Hempel
Accessible memoir.
Loved this memoir from the start!! I liked how the author curated scenes from her life that depicted how she felt at certain moments. The scenes were interesting, engaging, and fun to read. A lot about this book resonated with me -- how the author navigated relationships, learned what it means to be and feel lovable, and to grow through the obstacles. I haven't read a memoir that involved the other "characters" in the research and telling of the story, so this was cool to see. Very well-written.

This was a well written memoir about a statistically unlikely family each coming out of their own closets, with a lot of care about each of the family members it discusses, and the description of the experience of a parent's depression and lashing out was a little too close for comfort. There were some bits that were maybe too introspective, and probably only of interest to the author.
