Historia
“Can I kiss you?” It was two months before the world premiere of Juno, and Elliot Page was in his first ever queer bar. The hot summer air hung heavy around him as he looked at her. And then it happened. In front of everyone. A previously unfathomable experience. Here he was on the precipice of discovering himself as a queer person, as a trans person. Getting closer to his desires, his dreams, himself, without the repression he’d carried for so long. But for Elliot, two steps forward had always come with one step back.

With no way out and her identity burned so often that she had no proof she even existed, all that was left was a girl from nowhere.

Historia
The first story Selma Blair Beitner ever heard about herself is that she was a mean, mean baby. With her mouth pulled in a perpetual snarl and a head so furry it had to be rubbed to make way for her forehead, Selma spent years living up to her terrible reputation: biting her sisters, lying spontaneously, getting drunk from Passover wine at the age of seven, and behaving dramatically so that she would be the center of attention. In a memoir that is as wildly funny as it is emotionally shattering, Blair tells the captivating story of growing up and finding her truth.

Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction,” eating little and weighing herself five times a day. She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her income.

I order another bourbon, neat. This is the drink that will flip the switch. I don’t even know how I got here, to this place, to this point. Something is happening to me lately. I’m drinking too much. My sheets are soaking wet when I wake up from nightmares of decaying corpses. I order another drink and swig it, trying to forget about the latest case I can’t shake. Crime solving for me is more complex than the challenge of the hunt, or the process of piecing together a scientific puzzle. The thought of good people suffering drives me to the point of obsession.

Resumen del Editor
Born into the beautiful bedlam of downtown New York in the eighties, iO Tillett Wright came of age at the intersection of punk, poverty, heroin, and art. This was a world of self-invented characters, glamorous superstars, and strung-out sufferers, ground zero of drag and performance art. Still, no personality was more vibrant and formidable than iO's mother's. Rhonna, a showgirl and young widow, was a mercurial, erratic glamazon. She was iO's fiercest defender and only authority in a world with few boundaries and even fewer indicators of normal life. At the center of Darling Days is the remarkable relationship between a fiery kid and a domineering ma– a bond defined by freedom and control, excess and sacrifice; by heartbreaking deprivation, agonizing rupture, and, ultimately, forgiveness.
Darling Days is also a provocative examination of culture and identity, of the instincts that shape us and the norms that deform us, and of the courage and resilience it takes to listen closely to your deepest self. When a group of boys refuse to let six-year-old, female-born iO play ball, iO instantly adopts a new persona, becoming a boy named Ricky - a choice iO's parents support and celebrate. It is the start of a profound exploration of gender and identity through the tenderest years, and the beginning of a life invented and reinvented at every step. Alternating between the harrowing and the hilarious, Darling Days is the candid, tough, and stirring memoir of a young person in search of an authentic self as family and home life devolve into chaos.

Bobi Conn was raised in a remote Kentucky holler in 1980s Appalachia. She remembers her tin-roofed house tucked away in a vast forest paradise; the sparkling creeks, with their frogs and crawdads; the sweet blackberries growing along the road to her granny’s; and her abusive father. An elegiac account of survival despite being born poor, female, and cloistered, Bobi’s testament is one of hope for all vulnerable populations, particularly women and girls caught in the cycle of poverty and abuse.

Historia
In her best-selling memoir North of Normal, Cea wrote with grace about her unconventional childhood - her early years living in a tipi in Alberta with her pot-smoking, free-loving counterculture family. But her struggles do not end when she leaves her family at the age of 13 to become a model. Honest and daring, Nearly Normal reveals the many ways that Cea's unconventional childhood continues to reverberate through the years.

Historia
Jeanette Winterson’s bold and revelatory novels have established her as a major figure in world literature. This memoir is the chronicle of a life’s work to find happiness. It is a book full of stories: about a girl locked out of her home, sitting on the doorstep all night; about a religious zealot disguised as a mother who has two sets of false teeth and a revolver in the dresser drawer; about growing up in a north England industrial town in the 1960s and 1970s; and about the universe as a cosmic dustbin.

Historia
One summer day, Margaux Fragoso meets Peter Curran at the neighborhood swimming pool, and they begin to play. She is seven; he is 51. When Peter invites her and her mother to his house, the little girl finds a child’s paradise of exotic pets and an elaborate backyard garden. Her mother, beset by mental illness and overwhelmed by caring for Margaux, is grateful for the attention Peter lavishes on her, and he creates an imaginative universe for her, much as Lewis Carroll did for his real-life Alice.

My motherly instinct kicked in... I was captivated!
I downloaded this book when I was listening to iO’s podcast, the balled of Billy Balls (I highly recommend). It sat in my library for months and I regret not listening sooner. The memoir and the podcast are connected and you just have to listen to them both! iO’s memoir is riveting and had my attention for the 5 days it took me to listen. All I wanted to do was take iO in and be the mama. And knowing mama was there the whole time that loved her cub so much just killed me. Great story telling and loved the accents iO gave everyone. Super talent iO, I’d be proud of you if you were my child! This memoir made me hate drugs and the impact it has on people. I too have seen the effect drugs and alcohol have on families (my own as well) but to hear about someone else’s trauma just breaks my heart a little more, yet I want to help and love those that need it. All the emotions were hit with this one. Bravo iO, bravo!

Raw, real, and gripping!
I discovered iO a few years back when the podcast "The Ballad of Billy Balls" came out. This audio book is fantastic. iO narrates it and does an AMAZING job at the different voices and accents. iO is an incredible story teller. I suggest listening to the podcast first and following iO on Instagram before listening to this book so that you have a better understanding of iO's life and the backdrop to this book. This book is a captivating collection of stories that read like something out of a movie. It covers subject matters that people are often afraid to talk about or face...drugs, mental health, sexuality and gender, loneliness, despair, insecurity, and instability. This book will grab hold of you.

Loved listening to this book
iO's voice is especially hypnotic and relaxing to listen to. Loved the message behind the covers, a true story of growth and acceptance.

In love with this book and human
Would you listen to Darling Days again? Why?
I already have! I watched an interview with iO on youtube and thought his views were interesting, and wanted to hear more from him. It seemed like fate that his memoir was released around the same time. I love the strong and diverse characters, the chronology of life events, and just his voice. A beautiful writer.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Darling Days?
DEFINITELY any time iO used a special voice or accent to speak as a character (Indian, German, Italian, and various from New York, including the most impressive impersonation, his mother). For this, I am so glad that I did not buy the book in print. His acting experience is very helpful, I feel like I'm being entertained.
Which scene was your favorite?
Don't have one, but I did really enjoy the childhood stories.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Just the absurdity and beauty that is iO's life. Additionally, I love that iO's parents never doubted who he claimed he was: boy, girl, gay, whatever, they never made a big deal and accepted him as he was. This has helped me notice some of my prejudices and has inspired me to be more accepting of people for who they are.
Any additional comments?
I didn't want it to end.

Left wanting more
Picked this up after falling in love with her podcast. The story lags a bit in the middle. However, the end, with the 1-2 punch of her writing letters to people in her past on paper towel and then her grandma dying had me in tears. I never cry. This story will haunt me for quite some time. Her wistful delivery was spot-on.

Must read!
An absolutely beautifully spun story by an incredible story teller. I have completely fallen in love with iO through the weaving of their life. I hope there are more stories to come.
