Historia
Throughout the past year, teacher Chasten Glezman Buttigieg has emerged on the national stage, having left his classroom in South Bend, Indiana, to travel cross-country in support of his husband, former mayor Pete Buttigieg, and Pete's groundbreaking presidential campaign. Through Chasten's joyful, witty social media posts, the public gained a behind-the-scenes look at his life with Pete on the trail - moments that might have ranged from the mundane to the surprising, but that were always heartfelt.

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.

But that narrative was called into question one night, when McCaulley answered the phone and learned that his father—whose absence defined his upbringing—died in a car crash.

A high school art history teacher, Sebastian Mote envies his queer students and their freedom to live openly the youth he lost to fear and shame. When he runs into his childhood friend Oscar Burnham at a wedding in Washington, DC, he can’t help but see it as a second chance. Now thirty-five, the men haven’t seen each other in more than a decade. But Oscar has no interest in their shared history, nor in the sense of belonging Sebastian craves. Instead, he’s outraged by what he sees as the death of gay culture.

Kiese Laymon is a fearless writer. In his essays, personal stories combine with piercing intellect to reflect both on the state of American society and on his experiences with abuse, which conjure conflicted feelings of shame, joy, confusion, and humiliation. Laymon invites us to consider the consequences of growing up in a nation wholly obsessed with progress yet wholly disinterested in the messy work of reckoning with where we’ve been.

Resumen del Editor
2024 Audie Award Finalist for Best Autobiography/Memoir Audiobook
2023 SOVAS Award Finalist for Audiobook Narration—Author Performance—Best Voiceover
From one of the most vital and passionate LGBTQ+ activists comes a powerful memoir about self-discovery, community, love, and resilience in the face of adversity.
You never forget your first. First kiss. First love. First heartache. They all burrow their way into your subconscious, destined to reshape how you see the world forever.
Growing up in rural Oregon, Brandon Wolf grappled with the devastating loss of his supportive mother and with the embedded racism and homophobia of a community that made him feel like an unwelcome stranger. After the lack of connection and role models led him down a spiral of risky behavior, Wolf escaped to survive. In Orlando, he found what he’d been searching for: belonging—in a community that was a safe space with people he’d come to call his chosen family. They taught Wolf how to love, and be loved, unconditionally. Then, on June 12, 2016, in an exhilarating refuge where Wolf and hundreds of others had discovered a liberating new normal, they were suddenly challenged with fighting for a way out—in order to survive. Overnight, everything was ripped away by chaos, panic, and fear. But the unimaginable tragedy also gave Wolf a new power: purpose.
In this unforgettable coming-of-age memoir, Wolf shares his transformative journey from young outsider to galvanizing activist. Marshaling the compassion and strength of a community, Wolf explores how to get through the darkest times with healing, hope, and resistance. “With our backs against the wall,” he writes, “we find a way out together.”
Reseñas de la Crítica
“LGBTQ+ activist Brandon J. Wolf narrates his heartbreaking yet hopeful memoir with graceful clarity and much tenderness. He recounts his childhood in rural Oregon, where he was the only Black person in his family, and his eventual move to Orlando, Florida, where he found a life-saving queer community. He goes into detail about the night of the Pulse club shooting, the overwhelming grief of losing his best friend, and the trauma of surviving something so horrific. His narration is emotional and raw—this is not an easy book to listen to. But what comes through most powerfully as he's describing those he lost and the work he does today is love. Though devastating, this is a love letter to queer family and queer friendships. A moving, impactful listen.”—AudioFile Magazine
“Wolf narrates his memoir with a level of raw sincerity that captivates.… An honest, profound memoir that speaks to the struggle of belonging and the power of finding community.”—Library Journal
“[A] blazing debut. In stirring prose, Wolf mounts a testament to the power of community and a howling cry for justice. This is unforgettable.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

All but one symptom, anyway. Something is wrong with Tess’ hands. They absorb any material they touch, and her skin turns to wood, steel, or concrete. It doesn’t take this comic book obsessed 21-year-old long to figure out what’s going on: somehow, she’s developed super powers. And she’s not the only one; across the country, people are coming forward and sharing their gifts with the world.

What does it really mean to be a man? In Man Alive, Thomas Page McBee attempts to answer that question by focusing on two of the men who most impacted his life - one, his otherwise ordinary father who abused him as a child, and the other, a mugger who almost killed him. Standing at the brink of the life-changing decision to transition from female to male, McBee seeks to understand these examples of flawed manhood and tells us how a brush with violence sent him on the quest to untangle a sinister past and freed him to become the man he was meant to be.

From dinosaurs the size of locomotives to meteors big enough to sterilize the planet, from famines to pandemics, from tornadoes to the Chicxulub asteroid, the odds of human survival are slim but not zero—at least, not if you know where to go and what to do. In each chapter of How to Survive History, Cody Cassidy explores how to survive one of history’s greatest threats: getting eaten by dinosaurs, being destroyed by the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs, succumbing to the lava flows of Pompeii, being devoured by the Donner Party, and more.

This story is a gift of enlightenment
I thank the author Brandon for sharing his true self and experience. So much of his struggle was familiar and some not as much due to everyone’s life being a different set of experiences. but was expressed in such a way as to enlighten. This story inspires me to be more quiet so as to listen and see other people with eyes of openness and just basic love in my heart. This book is a treasure I won’t forget.

Unflinchingly honest; Beautifully read.
I spent the weekend listening to the audio version of Brandon J Wolf's debut book A Place For Us.
Written with unflinching honesty and a profound sense of vulnerability, this book is a timely and hope-filled testament to resilience and the healing power of forging a community that embraces your authentic self.
It is an incredibly moving memoir that traces Brandon's life as a journey through the intersections of racism, anti-LGBTQ hatred, and the steadily increasing presence of gun violence.
I’ve read the book too but hearing the stories told in Brandon's own voice strikes an even deeper chord.
This is the book I would have wanted in my high school library. This is the book I would have read to know I wasn’t alone or “lost in the crease” of identities at war with each other.
It is the kind of book the fools in charge in Florida would rush to ban. That may be the best endorsement of all.

From Struggling to Super Hero...a story of courage
A young man's struggle at the intersections of identity, escaping from Oregon to Orlando in search of a safe space to live authentically. Brandon Joseph bravely battles the bigotry of white supremacists in high school when no adult would. Somehow he summons the strength to rise above the loss of his mother, rape, and the Windermere Police. Finally finding friendship but then losing those loved ones at the largest LGBTQIA mass shooting in history. Brandon tackles his trauma with action. Confronting his fears of inadequacy, he finds his voice as an introvert. I couldn't stop listening to his courageous story, a Super Hero, outliving fatal hate, finding power in purpose. Brandon invites us to lean in to the best of us, finding safe harbor in community.

story of growth, loss and healing
Admittedly, I am a fan of Brandon for his advocacy and work here in Florida. I bought and listened to his book with an assumption of a book filled with vulnerability, heart, honesty and growth. He did not disappoint!
If you want to connect to the importance of community, of friends and healing after trauma...this book touches it all. Highly recommend!

Superb
Brandon is an incredible writer, compelling storyteller, and beautiful human. His words resonate deeply and his courage to share his experiences authentically make his book easy to listen to … which says a lot given the deep and profoundly difficult stories he shares.
