Karen Lyu
A school principal. A trucking company owner. A mother of three. One woman driving it all.At 7:49 every morning, Dr. Karen Lyu stands at the gate of her Title I elementary school and says good morning to two hundred children. At 4:30 that same morning, she was on a load board booking freight. By midnight, she’ll be at her kitchen table, doing math that shouldn’t be this hard for a woman who did everything right.Driving Two Buses is the memoir of a Black woman with a doctorate and $180,000 in student loan debt who bought an eighteen-wheeler because the numbers wouldn’t work any other way.• The system that demanded her credentials and undervalued her worth• The drivers who broke her trust and the brokers who broke their promises• A body that carried two lives until it demanded to be heard• A dating desert that taught her what she was worth - and the quiet-hearted man who proved it• The K-dramas, the couch, and the dogs that saved her sanityRaw, funny, and unflinching - with reflection questions in every chapter for book clubs and anyone doing math at midnight.She is not crazy. She is a driver. And the road is yours.
