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.

Original title: "Bonecas na noite: Histórias cotidianas de travestis e transexuais" (Dolls in the Night:: Everyday Stories of Transvestites and Transsexuals) by Rafael B. Ferrareze.
This book tells the stories of some transvestites and transsexuals living in the city of Ponta Grossa in the State of Paraná. They report their nocturnal experiences and how life led them to work at night in Ponta Grossa as sex professionals.
These stories lead us to reflect on topics such as prejudice, social exclusion, violence, and pleasure, among others. It's simply a fascinating book. This study began first with theoretical discussions about gender, identity, culture, and community development among others, followed by the preparation of this work.
The study site was the non-profit organization (Rebirth), intended to defend the human rights of the LGBT community. The target focus of this study was four transvestites and three transsexuals with the overall objective of presenting the everyday stories of transvestites and transsexuals.
