I was hooked from the first page!! A long time line that enter-twine over and over again! I can see why it took seven years to write!!!

I could NOT put this book down. Picked it up because it was written by the same author as Virgin Sucides (another great book). It took the author nearly 5 years to write this book and it was well worth the wait. Don't let the topic scare you. It isn't about the he/she sleeping around or anything like that. It's a great story of someone finding themselves and then finding their family history. The story jumps from generations, but personally I couldn't put the book down because I was so interested to get back to each of the stories within the book.Great Read!Pick it up and Enjoy!And u cant beat overstock's price!

An amazing book, full of fascinating detail and historical information, that reads so well you don't want to put it down. One of the best novels I've read.

Often times I was very confused with this book. I seemed to jump around alot and was just very hard for me to get into. Not something you should pick up if your looking for a light easy read but if your interested in trangender issues then obviously this book tells a good story.
