Forward: A Memoir

memoirs read by the author might be the only genre of audiobooks that are improved by the audio format, or at least, so far they are the only ones i've been (mostly) capable of listening to without also wanting to at least skim through the text and maybe highlight passages (which somewhat defeats the purpose). anyway i mostly know Abby from her podcast with Glennon, and it turns out that this book covers her life up until just before their first meeting (the one Glennon's has waxed poetic about so often), which was a bit of a disappointment. but it was interesting to hear about Abby's life as a professional athlete, what it was like to become an accidental poster child for LGBT rights, and a bit about her history with drugs and alcohol and her journey to sobriety.
