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.

Full title: "What Goes On in This House Stays in This House: A Mother's Journey to Acceptance of Her Transgender Daughter" by Cynthia L Schiefer.
"This book speaks to parents who suspect or know their children are LGBTQ+ and who are struggling with acceptance. Despite their fierce love for their children, or perhaps because of it, they suffer from fear, anxiety, confusion, shame, or simply not knowing what to do.
In What Goes On in This House Stays in This House, Cynthia Schiefer gives an unflinchingly honest account of her years-long struggle to accept her transgender daughter. Her story is a beacon of hope to parents who feel alone and hopeless about their families’ future."
"Not only does Schiefer share her personal journey from aggressively hiding her truth to complete peace and acceptance, she offers high-level information about LGBTQ+ terms and issues, recommendations for more information, resources for support, practical tips for self-forgiveness, and valuable insight into what LGBTQ+ children need and want from their parents and loved ones.
Particularly powerful are excerpts from interviews with LGBTQ+ young adults, including Schiefer’s own transgender daughter. What Goes On in This House is a welcome port in a storm for struggling parents who long to create supportive, loving, emotionally healthy relationships with their LGBTQ+ children."
