I am reading 'Middlesex' by Jefferey Eugenides. It is about a girl who transforms into a man. It is very long (I have been reading it for months) and I am just getting to the part where he talk about his life. It does not say so but from what I have read of the book he was born intersex.

Also u can search for "Shanghai Tango" by Jin Xing, its a thrilled biography of a extraordinary MtF person, a path from the chinese army to the recognition in the world of balet, DONT LOOSE THAT BOOK.

now im in "The Swarm"    (A Novel by Frank Schatzing)

And swallow "The Secret" in a day!!!!!!! It was sticky in my hand!!!! LOL
If you read it maybe you change your way of thinking and living, its a "must read".

isn't the secret that you can make an awful lot of money by rehashing old, worn, new age, untruths?

[evelynaGR]

yeap that's it,

but isnt the money the wealth or the power, its the way u can see u r life from the reading of that book and then.

It is the way you make u r needs (i think...!!!).

It only took a year for me to finish that - it was a big chore to get throught it all. The second part when her talks about his intersec life was very interesting. I can however see why someone from Greece would enjoy the whole story.

I am now reading 'Alice in Genderland' for the second time .

i'm going to read 'prick up your ears' by John Lahr about Joe Orton

[Pica Pica]

it's like the sad fact that john cleese has grown into being one of the people he caricatured.

The film of prick up your ears is great. And I once played Mr McCleavy in Loot

Funny Dweia I am also  reading this series right now. I'm on Series II,  "The Drawing of the Three". You never know where he's going with this book. Not usually much of a fiction reader but a friend insisted and I needed some new reading material. So far so good though.
