I grew up in a conservative, culturally homogeneous, rural area where I did a fair amount of farm work. Then, for college, I moved to a liberal and comparatively diverse big city where I was surrounded by lots of privileged rich kids. Unsurprisingly, I was in for quite a bit of culture shock (and I continue to experience a fair amount of that today). There were little things, like having no idea what "boba" was, and big things like having never met anyone who was openly queer. Most of what I thought I knew about the world got overturned. I don't really know anyone with similar life experience and I am hoping I can see myself reflected in books, either memoir or fiction. The only such book I've read before is "Educated" by Tara Westover, which I liked (although it was pretty intense). Any other suggestions?
