Most coming-of-age stories are about teenagers, but not this one. Eddy’s coming-of-age hardly starts until he’s 35 years old, when he discovers a penchant for wearing women’s clothes. It takes him ten more exciting and very weird years before he figures out he really should have been a girl all along. After the sex change, Eddy, now Lannie, has to build a whole new life as a woman. The hard part was going to be finding a man to love her. While Everything Nice is YATA - Yet Another Transgender Autobiography - it brings to the genre an honesty about releationships and sex before and after gender transition; a hard look at the dating scene from a transsexual point of view; and the unique sense of humor Lannie demonstrated in HOW THE CHANGE YOUR SEX and LANNIE! MY JOURNEY FROM MAN TO WOMAN. If you only read one transsexual autobiography this year, Everything Nice is the one you want to choose.

Really enjoyed the down to earth writing and author's internal explanations of the various situations. It was great to learn more of the SF-Oak bay area and the many places in the south bay. Many names are shared as well the events and inside activities within the SF night clubs. Appreciate the honesty and candid comments as to why something is this way or that. There is also parts about the Atlanta annual party with good comments on thte events there. It is a real eye-opener to those considering this life or already in it. Si.
