Pete Buttigieg, currently the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, but also a Democratic candidate for the presidency, presents his life thus far in this candid memoir. He's young‒just 37‒and is very service-oriented with a large resume of life experiences (administrative, military, consulting, volunteering) that have all contributed to his skill set. He speaks of his political successes and failures and what he's learned from them. He also speaks about being gay, his decision to come out to his parents and the community at age 33, and how he met his husband. I wanted to read his memoir to see whether I think he'd make‒later, if not in 2020‒a statesman that could make our country move in a positive direction. I recommend this book.Sunday, October 13, 2019
