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: "It's Not Over: Insights of A New Woman" by Karen Lyra.
"In March of 2021, I published my first book titled “Finding Myself – Discovering My Gender Identity”. As I explained on it, the realization that I was transgender came late in my life although I felt something was not “right” with me since I was a child; been born with a male body, but feeling I wanted to be a girl.
It took me a long time with an inner fight through phases of denial that always ended with a new phase of acceptance that was growing as years passed by until I finally accepted I am transgender. The inner fight about my gender identity has finally finished. I learned to embrace my realization of being transgender and end loving myself completely for who I am. I had found myself, finally. What should I do next? What my next step should be?"

Full title: "Finding myself: Discovering my gender identity" by Karen Lyra.
"“Finding Myself” is an inner journey I decided I must start some years ago and writing this book has become a crucial part of it, a definitive milestone in my life. I realized I am transgender not very long ago and became aware that I have lived all my life not suppressing a “part of me”, as I once thought, but suppressing my true self.
Given the stage of the life I am going through, with its circumstances, challenges and blessings, maybe it is going to take more time until I can achieve the changes I want but it is not fair to keep my true self in the dark for longer. If I haven’t come out in real life yet and it may take a while until I can take that step, I know I can put my words out there to share all I have been through since the very first moment of my life that I thought I wanted to be a girl.
