I also filmed a BookTalk for A WORK IN PROGRESS on my YouTube channel.

Connor Franta is a natural writer with some great stories to tell. I started this the day it arrived on my doorstep; from the beginning I was glued. I couldn't stop reading. I have never read a book this inspiring and relatable (not trying to reference his So Relatable video, it just happened.)

Connor shares his thoughts, childhood stories, and photography, his art, in this well-written memoir. It's a unique and enjoyable look into the life Connor Franta - more than a five minute YouTube video can tell you - where he tells stories about growing up, accepting himself, and making big decisions as an adult.

I read it three different days, one of my quicker reads lately. I can see myself going back to this to flip through and look for quotes and favorite photos in the future. This book has reminded me of so many things I need to remember in this Internet age, but one thing I take away from this work of art is that we all need to live in the now because "life doesn't wait."
