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.

Raquel Reyes - Goddess: Memoir of a Transsexual

"She became the iconic image of the perfect transsexual female. A stunningly beautiful face and body exploded onto the world wide web at the turn of the millennium and inspired artists and photographers and provoked adulation and confusion in countless men AND women. 

Raquel Reyes' charismatic presence, jaw-dropping beauty, and bold sensuality are the stuff of legend... but it's her life, the one she chose and ultimately survived, that fuels this rich and entertaining read.

Written with great style by Raquel herself, it is a vivid recreation of a life filled with pain and pleasure, glamour and heartache, self-destruction and redemption. From Tampa where she was born to the clandestine brothels of Boston and New York to the mansions of Miami Beach and Los Angeles where she played with actors, rock stars, and porn queens to the islands of Greece and cities across Europe and South America, it is a tale of beauty gone wild and Raquel's desperate search for something, anything, that mattered. It's the truth behind the beauty and it isn't all pretty. But it's exactly how it happened."
