review 1: I did actually read this book in one day - I got caught up in the story and just didn't want to put it down. I appreciated learning about his journey and his experiences and how he told the story of transition at a human life level that many people will be to relate too. It is humorous, poignant, stirring, and moving all at once. I want to say congratulations to Everett too - for living the life that is right for him, for being brave enough to tell his story (and, hey, for getting his story published), for his happy ending.
review 2: This is as damn near as perfect and enjoyable book as I've found yet. Memoirs aren't really my thing, but I guess they should be. I love to know about other people's lives if they aren't like me. This book was enlightening and hila
... morerious all at the same time. From page one I was hooked. There are a ton of things that go into living as a man that I never would have thought of before reading this. While I'm sure a lot of the issues can be pretty intense and difficult, they were presented in this book in an easy and amusing way.I loved that it was seemingly written without taking itself too seriously. It never came across as preachy or message-y. As someone unfamiliar with a lot of the issues, this made it easier for me to get into and enjoy. Though the focus is obviously on the transitioning, it's about so much more than that.Probably the best thing about the book was that it left me wanting more, which is a good sign when reading someone's life story. I have a feeling that any story this man wants to share would be enjoyable to read. Hard to put down, easy laughs! less
