I have heard about Sarah working in the Delaware legislature. I finally picked this up because she has just been elected to the U.S. Congress. Sarah weathered many ups and downs before running for office, which has surely prepared her for Congress. The book is approachable for anyone who is unfamiliar with her work or with transgender people in general. The book is easy to read and very thoughtful. This book ends in 2017–if you’re looking for hope after the 2024 presidential election, I recommend picking this up.

"Thank you, Bean," I said.

"For what?" he asked.

"For creating a world where I can do this," I told him. He smiled and squeezed my hand.

Lethal doses of neoliberal platitude, but a very touching story nevertheless 

Want to cry? I have the book for you! There are many moments in this book in which you’ll be moved to weep. Sad tears, happy tears, mixes of both, this book has them all. McBride narrates this herself, and does so very well, and tells her story honestly, humbly and inspiringly. She explains how change happens, individually and structurally, in a way that makes the reader/listener ready to join or further help society achieve LGBTQ equality.

Read Harder: Read an LGBTQ+ history book - not sure this one is “history” per se but it’s recent history and alludes to what came before.
