So, I finished the book a couple of days ago. I have to say that I was severely disappointed in it. First and foremost it didn't read as though it was written by her and that, for me, eroded at the whole idea that the book was written to be a guide/proof/inspiration. It read in a very biased manner--the people outside of Kris were very one dimensional, either entirely supportive or a complete a**hole. It was quite honestly poorly written in my opinion. I think she did herself a disservice by having a co-author. It muddled the voice and tone of the book. It was an interesting read, a fascinating story, and above all a nice listing of everything that she accomplished, both as a SEAL and as a MtF transgender. It leaves a bad taste in your mouth (no joke intended) with regards to having a LOT of shock factor with both SF escapades and the lifelong struggle she had.
Overall impression though? It could have been much more powerful and less "sell-out' if other writing/publishing choices had been made. Still, good for her!
