I really loved this book and can relate to it in many ways.
As many other t-girls will know it is a therapy that helps our acceptance when we meet other t-girls and real girls and can talk over our real live stories and feelings. By putting pen to paper to beautifully tell this story Karen has reinforced my feeling of acceptance. And that means a lot to me.
So often we are the butt of so many jokes and ridicule it's very comforting to read such an open and honest view of how she came to terms with her shock of this devastating news. I love the added the humour, not to ridicule but just an obvious way for her to imagine the situation and goings on of her husband when dressed..."Bette Lynch in leopard leggings"..."image of my husband gyrating on the dance floor alongside other men in dresses"..."my husband sitting on floral settees, sipping tea, making polite ladylike conversation"..."he was not a woman, not a wife and not, ironically, in my shoes"...these and others made me laugh out loud!
Hopefully if I can pick the right moment, I can get my wife to read this story, I'm sure it will help her understand that lots of partners are in a similar situation all with their own stories and ways of coping.
Thanks to the author for sharing this very private part of your live.
I highly recommend this book to anyone in a similar situation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well written and helpful 19 July 2012
By Penny
Format:Kindle Edition
Having been through a similar experience to the author I've spent the last few months learning about living with a transvestite. This short, well written book has been tremendously helpful in making me feel less alone in the strange new world I'm living in. Some things rang very true, while naturally others differed from my experience. In particular Karen's husband was already going out dressed when he made his brave decision to tell her. She also seemed to adapt far more quickly than me to her new life, and Mark/Annie was very lucky that she embraced the change so fully, joining in his social life and helping him with dress and makeup.

I'm travelling a similar road more slowly, but it's good to know others have gone this way before and emerged happier, richer people. Thank you Karen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth a read 23 July 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I am not related to or nor do I have any close transvestite or cross dresser friends. I decided to read this book on the whim. To be honest I wasn't sure if I would enjoy the book as I knew I wouldn't be able to relate to the story... however I was surprised!

It's a quite a short book (just the right length) and I was intrigued to read about Mark and Karen's experience. I didn't know much about the cross dressing and transvestite world before reading the book, and it's really opened my eyes.

This is an awful thing to admit, but if someone had asked me before reading this book how I would feel if my boyfriend told me he was a transvestite I would say that I would freak out and end our relationship, because surely he must be gay or sex mad. But after reading this lovely book it's made me realise that is not the case.

I would be keen to find out more about the psychology behind transvestitism, why do men enjoy wearing women's clothing. Is there some sort of common event which has happened in their lives?

A great read and I would highly recommend it. Well done Karen, I hope to read more from you.
