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.

Jacob Tobia - Así como soy

Original title: "Así como soy" (Just as I am) by Jacob Tobia.

A moving, revealing, and humorous book about what it's like to grow up without knowing if you're a) a girl, b) a boy, c) something in between, or d) all of the above. 

During his childhood, Jacob Tobia was not the wrong gender, life simply offered too much. Barbies? Yes. Get dirty in the mud? Please. Princess dresses? Of course! Jacob wanted everything and had no problem with anything. But because he was a female boy, he was labeled a "sissy" and then things got complicated.

It took years for Jacob to discover that being a "sissy" is not something to be ashamed of. It is a source of pride. This is a deeply personal story of pain and healing, a powerful reflection on gender and self-acceptance, and a fun guide to being different in the modern world.
