Anecdotes, observations, and reflections collected during a solo cross-country drive.

When Jacobson announced that she planned to drive across the country alone, she was met with lots of questions and opinions. The most common one: Why? Having always found comfort in solitude, she spent the journey mulling over the big questions-- What do I really want? What is the worst possible scenario in which I could run into my ex? How has the decision to wear my shirts tucked in been pivotal in my adulthood? Here she shares anecdotes, observations and reflections, putting readers in the passenger seat on a fun and, ultimately, inspiring journey. -- adapted from jacket.
