First off, I highly recommend reading this memoir in audio format if you can. It's read by the author herself, and her fiddling and singing can be heard throughout the book which added a lot of enjoyment to my reading.

That aside, this was just a good memoir, musical soundtrack or no musical soundtrack. What stood out to me most were the author's self-confidence and the connections she made with people throughout her life. I was deeply invested in the author's story, and I appreciated that she didn't shy away from sharing experiences that must have been difficult to write about.

But of course, the two major themes of this book were the author's musical career and her disability. As someone with a decent knowledge of disability issues but very little knowledge of the musical industry, I found everything easy to understand and enjoyed learning a little about the experience of music production. For people with less knowledge about disability, I think they could learn a lot from this book both about the author's personal story and the general experiences of disabled people in the US and throughout the world. As someone with more knowledge, I still appreciated hearing Lea's personal experience and found that I shared many of her sentiments about accessibility and inclusion.

Again, this was a very enjoyable read. I hope it leads a lot more people to discover Lea's music and to learn more about disability culture and activism across the world.
