âThis egregious gap has now been filled to a fare-thee-well by Dawson's book...â â Booklist (Starred)
Lesbian. Bisexual. Queer. Transgender. Straight. Curious. This book is for everyone, regardless of gender or sexual preference. This book is for anyone whoâs ever dared to wonder. This book is for YOU.
Thereâs a long-running joke that, after âcoming out,â a lesbian, gay guy, bisexual, or trans person should receive a membership card and instruction manual. THIS IS THAT INSTRUCTION MANUAL. Youâre welcome.
Inside youâll find the answers to all the questions you ever wanted to ask: from sex to politics, hooking up to stereotypes, coming out and more. This candid, funny, and uncensored exploration of sexuality and what itâs like to grow up LGBT also includes real stories from people across the gender and sexual spectrums, not to mention hilarious illustrations.
You will be entertained. You will be informed. But most importantly, you will know that however you identify (or donât) and whomever you love, you are exceptional. You matter. And so does this book.
One of The Guardianâs Best Books of the Year
"The book every LGBT person would have killed for as a teenager, told in the voice of a wise best friend. Frank, warm, funny, USEFUL." âPatrick Ness, bestselling author
