Lehrer begins her story by sharing the first time she was sexually assaulted, at the age of 18. She vividly recounts the experience, from the initial shock and disbelief to the shame and self-blame that followed. In the years that followed, Lehrer was sexually assaulted several more times, each experience leaving her feeling more lost and alone.

But Lehrer refused to let her experiences define her. She sought therapy, joined a support group, and began to speak out about her story. Through her activism, Lehrer has helped to raise awareness about the prevalence of sexual violence and the importance of consent. She has also worked to change the way that society views sexual assault, from a crime that is often blamed on the victim to a crime that is always the fault of the perpetrator.

Consent is a powerful and moving memoir that will stay with you long after you finish reading it. Lehrer's story is a testament to the strength and resilience of survivors of sexual violence. It is also a call to action for all of us to do more to prevent sexual assault and to support survivors.
