Stan Lee loved Heretic to Housewife by Rahne Alexander. It's an essay collection by Baltimore-based trans writer Rahne Alexander. In ten essays, she connects the dots between her conservative Mormon upbringing and her emergence as a queer, feminist performer. New, $9.99. I think he likes it because Rahne gave him head scratches the first time she met him, and he's a complete attention hog. Buy it here.
