First I want to point out that I am not a biography genre person. I think I have read only one other biography in my life and though that piece was just as amazing as this one, I just prefer other writings. That being said, this book had me flipping the pages quickly. The stories that Tara tells are both personal to herself but create a window into countless others as well.Simple down to Earth stories of experiences in the "hearing world" that many of us take for granted, are given a new life. Humor is entwined heavily throughout the read, so even in the most trying of tales, you find you are laughing with the writer as she remembers her survival of some of these embarrassing instances.I have recommended this book to several of my friends already, and I highly recommend it to anyone reading this review. As for why I gave it 4 stars instead of five, the only issue I had with the book was timeline. I felt as if the book may have run more smoothly if the short stories were chronological. In several instances in the book, she tells of something that happened when she was older and working, then jumps back to a tale of her youth. Don't let it stop you from reading this one though. She is very forward and tells you exactly where she is in her life. It's very easy to follow, it's just my personal preference.I still say it is a definite must read for anyone!Lisa
