About this Book

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was a volunteer with the Jesuit Volunteer Corps in Portland, Oregon, in 1992. I had grown up in working-class Chicago, and I had no idea what the Pacific Northwest even looked like. I was yearning for new experiences and dreaming about who I could become. #2 I met Hunter Biden, a volunteer at the JVC, and we quickly became inseparable. We walked the city holding hands, and talked on the phone every night we weren’t together. I didn’t see the point in going anywhere if I couldn’t be with him. #3 I came from a working-class family. My life was more practical than aspirational. There was never talk of being special. Hunter tried to tell me that he came from a middle-class family, but nothing about his life looked remotely middle-class to me. #4 My parents were a united front. I never heard them argue or raise their voices. They took a hands-off approach to parenting, but they were always a united front.
