Before Jon-Jon Goulian was a "cross-dressing literary hipster," as Rolling Stone put it, he was an awkward, frightened kid with some serious insecurities, thanks to his high-achieving family members. Goulian opens up about it with his first book, The Man in the Gray Flannel Skirt (Random House, $25), an honest, funny, look at how the little moments in childhood influence how interesting we can become as adults. — Michelle Garcia
