A random collection of over 1910 books and audiobooks authored by or about my transgender, intersex sisters, and gender-nonconforming persons all over the world. I read some of them, and I was inspired by some of them. I met some of the authors and heroines, some of them are my best friends, and I had the pleasure and honor of interviewing some of them. If you know of any transgender biography that I have not covered yet, please let me know.

Christi Brekke - Becoming, Belonging and Blossoming

Full title: "Becoming, Belonging and Blossoming: Diaries of a Trans Girl in Trumpland"

From the author of "I Want to Be Her: a Memoir," a new collection of narratives following the ups and downs of one transgender woman coming into her own in Donald Trump's America.

In 2017, I talked to Christi about her transition and this is what she told me: "I didn’t even hear the term “transgender” until I was almost forty years old. I lived four decades, basically thinking something was wrong with me.

I knew I was a woman inside, but I figured everyone would think me insane so I never told anyone – except my wife. I told her many years ago. In 2011, when I finally saw a TV program about it, and I fully understood it, I knew immediately that I would transition eventually. But it wasn’t until Caitlyn Jenner came out and sort of opened the door for us that I finally made the decision to come out and begin my own transition at age 44. Thanks, Caitlyn!"
