What if the parts of you that never fit in were never supposed to?
Sterling Beaudin spent years trying to shrink himself-quieter, easier, more digestible. But somewhere between the ADHD spirals, breakdowns (mechanical and emotional), and sideways leaps of faith, he stopped trying to be someone else-and started figuring out who he really was.
Read the Room, Kid is a raw and often funny memoir about the long, winding road to self-acceptance. From small-town Saskatchewan to fatherhood, failed plans, and dirt-covered dreams, Sterling lays it all out: the moments he fell flat, the ones that cracked him open, and the ones that made it all worth it.
This book isn't about having the answers. It's about getting back up when life kicks your teeth in, laughing anyway, and saying the honest thing even when your voice shakes.
Because the truth is, the most important room you'll ever learn to read-is yourself.
