Leaving Isn't the Hardest Thing
Essays
Lauren Hough
A collection of deeply personal essays exploring cults, homelessness, hunger, and identity, while uncovering unexpected light and humor. Lauren Hough reflects on her unconventional path from childhood in the infamous cult The Children of God, to life as an airman, cable guy, and bouncer, to ultimately becoming a writer. With a sharp wit, raw vulnerability, and powerful bravery, Leaving Isn't the Hardest Thing probes the complexities of survival, queerness, and how to reconcile one's past with creating a future.
