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.
"Help! I’m Addicted: A Trans Girls Self- Discovery and Recovery" is the second book by Rhyannon Styles, following her "New Girl: A Trans Girl Tells It Like It Is" (2017).
"A raw, frank and practical guide to recovery from addiction and substance abuse from one of the stars of the trans community. In 2012, Rhyannon Styles began her gender transition and attended her first 12-step meeting – beginning two journeys that changed the course of her life. Using her personal narrative as a springboard for exploring addiction, recovery and LGBTQ+ mental health, Rhyannon writes with searing honesty about the complexity of her experiences."
Rhyannon Styles, a remarkable figure in the LGBTQIA+ community, wears multiple hats as a writer, performer, and sound meditation practitioner. Rhyannon’s story is vividly painted with glorious technicolor. She has experienced both catastrophic lows and incredible highs. Her narrative takes us through cabaret drag acts, brushes with celebrities, and even her time at a Parisian clown school. Her memoir, titled “The New Girl: A Trans Girl Tells It Like It Is”, offers a unique perspective on what it’s like to be transgender.
