Summary:
Passarella grew up in Memphis in a conservative, Republican family with a Christian mom and a Jewish dad. Then she moved to New York, fell in love with the city and, eventually, her husband... and changed. Sort of. In her memoir she shares stories about everything from conceiving a baby in an unair-conditioned garage in Florida to finding a rat in her bedroom. She upends stereotypes about Southerners, New Yorkers, and Christians, making a case that we are all flawed humans simply doing our best. More importantly, it is about the God who pursues each of us, no matter our own inconsistencies or failures, and shows us the way back home. -- adapted from jacket
