Don't wait for epiphanies, be true to yourself, explore little glimmers of interest.

I wish this book was around when I was in high school! Real stories about what its like to be a lesbian/trans teenager.

Every year we go to the Outer Banks for a week and last year I started a tradition for myself of reading books that are somehow connected to the ocean. Last year it was The Perfect Storm and The Hungry Ocean. This year it was the Shadow Divers. I really enjoyed this book. The author did a wonderful job of incorporating and balancing the historical with the personal adventures and challenges that his subjects faced. I was moved by the respect that the divers had for the remains of the German sailors in the sub. Makes me want to learn how to scuba dive!
