The first half of the book is focused on the “adult” hurdle of moving out of your family home, but also reconnecting with or making new friends. It’s extremely pivotal for Nagata that she’s able to move away from her parents’ house and get out from under that dynamic as her family reads and experiences her work. Anyone who’s ever written autobiographical content has struggled with this. This book expands on the career component when it comes to her being out of the closet with her parents and honest about the sexually explicit nature of her work, how she speaks about her family, and in general, being a lesbian. My Solo Exchange Diary continues to cover loneliness and depression, plus Nagata’s struggles to move from her parents’ home and the changes in her career. Perhaps I read My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness during a down moment in my own life and could better identify with the loneliness and depression throughout the book. And no, this doesn’t have to do with the lower amount of content about sex and sex work. This is a sequel to My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness, which off the top, I liked the first one better.
