I’m a very slow reader and I couldn’t put this book down. Harvey is just a few years older than me and was an early inspiration to me. So many similarities growing up gay in the 60’s. Written with such incredible, vivid detail spiked with his sharp sense of humor he leaves not much unexamined. One particular devastating event in his teens really resonated with one of my own awkward teenage experiences. His candor and brilliant writing was a real treat for me.

I’ve devoured Peter Staley’s magnificent memoir. NEVER SILENT, ACT UP and My Life in Activism. I couldn’t put it down! This is a must read, especially during these troubled times. As a long term survivor of HIV and someone who witnessed and participated in much of this history I’m so grateful for Peter and his courageous comrades in Act Up. Without their efforts I wouldn’t be here today. His writing is brisk, filled with gorgeous evocative details. I loved everything about this book. Especially, the Wall Street disruption chapter which is thrilling in its 007 like urgency. It completely pulled me in from the start. I experienced all the rage, sadness, frustration, fear and finally inspiration and hope from his incredible, selfless contribution to humanity.

During the recent heat wave in NYC I finally had the great sense to stay indoors and finish reading Jacob Tobia's fantastic memoir, Sissy: A Coming-of
During the recent heat wave in NYC I finally had the great sense to stay indoors and finish reading Jacob Tobia's fantastic memoir, Sissy: A Coming-of Gender Story. Full disclosure, I had the privilege of meeting Jacob during my last visit to LA and over the phone for an interview they did with me for my memoir, Trans Figured: My Journey from Boy to Girl to Woman to Man. For me, Jacob's voice perfectly captures this and future generations to come. Their courageous, moving and at times screamingly funny journey of finding their place in the often complicated and at times cruel world of gender identity should be read by anyone who has ever questioned, been confronted or even criticized for their own gender choices. It is an absolute must read for parents of any gender persuasion. This heartfelt and genuine account will leave you not only wanting more of Jacob's mistressful way with language but will have you waiting impatiently for their next book. Filled with metaphors, (I could kick myself for not thinking of). I couldn't help recall my own struggle in finding comfort within my gender presentation. How thrilled I was with the self recognition, it felt familiar, comfy and at times chilling. Borrowing from Jacob's observations and knowing only too well from having hobbled in those heels...there's nothing better than breaking in a pair of fabulous pumps, enduring the pain and knowing that eventually they will provide you with a very comfortable stride. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jacob Tobia
