Dedicated to trans women everywhere, this inspirational collection of letters written by successful trans women shares the lessons they learnt on their journeys to womanhood, celebrating their achievements and empowering the next generation to become who they truly are.

Add a CommentI loved this book, in fact? I didn't want it to end... It's a well presented series of personal letters from some well known, and not so well known trans women that have finished their transition, to their "sisters", the rest of us.... who are still traveling our own individual paths. I personally found this book to be inspiring on many levels. The overriding message? is that yes, "WE" will be ok in the long term....
Curated and arranged very well, this collection of letters from trans women offering advice and inspiration to their sisters is a rewarding read for anyone that's interested in the diversity of human experience.
