“CompartMENTALized: My Journey from Camptown to the NSA” is a memoir written by the author Tena Lawyer. Tena lived in Camptown, Virginia (VA) as a child. As a kid, she spent great time with her grandmother Novella Moore Lawyer who passed away at the age of 68 years old. I was glad to read about Tena’s mother Ellouise Lawyer for her toughness, career driven and extrovert nature. Tena went to Camptown Elementary, Carrsville Elementary, Windsor Elementary and Windsor High school as a kid. In 1979, she attended University of Maryland Baltimore County in Catonsville.
Her uncle Teensy pushed her to join the US Army. It was amazing to read about her boot camp experience. In 1983, a tragic event happened in Tena’s life. She lost her grandmother. While reading this book, I could feel how much Tena must be close to her grandmother. Read this memoir to know how Tena advanced in ranks and then worked for the National Security Agency (NSA) as a soldier.
Tena has shared photos of important people and moments in her life. Language used in the book is simple and I was able to follow Tena’s story easily. Cover photo of the book is nice. Pace of the story is fast and I didn’t feel bored anytime while reading it. This memoir gave me an opportunity to read about so many life experiences of the author. Readers will definitely enjoy this book. It’s a must read.
