Transgender icons and activists Gorgeous, a YouTube star and actress, and Gottmik, who is a drag performer, actor, and makeup artist, are also friends. In this book, they tell the stories of their transitions and all the joy and difficulties that came with them. They’ve taken those experiences and combined their shared knowledge into a guide. There is insight to be gained for everyone—transgender readers, parents of trans children, and those wanting to become better allies to the trans community. Several other prominent LGBTQIA+ advocates—Adam Lambert, Candis Cayne, Paris Hilton, Courtney Act, Sasha Colby—and many others contributed to the conversation by sharing their own experiences. The book covers topics such as the gender spectrum, staying true to oneself, dating, and potential medical and nonmedical options to achieve desired features. There are also beautiful full-page photos of the two authors and occasional illustrations to help demonstrate the topics.
VERDICT An important addition to any library, this book is an excellent educational guide to topics surrounding the transgender experience. It will be helpful to readers looking for guidance along their own journeys and to those looking to support trans people.
