A Gentleman's a Bestseller
WE DID IT! A Gentleman’s Gentleman hit the USA Today bestseller list at #67 (which is so close to the FUN number, but I guess I shouldn’t wish for a demotion).
Thank you, the person reading this newsletter, for helping make this happen. Readers, librarians, booksellers, my team at Vintage—I really do consider this a win that takes a village. Mostly I feel invigorated. People do want trans stories right now; it’s not too late.
Some AG’sG housekeeping:
I’ll be at Astoria Bookshop for a Trans Day of Visibility fete with Joanna Lowell and Sarah MacLean on March 31. Please wear a mask! Trans liberation = community care.
On April 5, I’ll be at the fairly new Fountain Bookshop in uptown Manhattan to sign books. The shop is ALSO an ice cream parlor and I can personally vouch for its tastiness.
If you’re reading A Gentleman’s Gentleman in a book club, my publisher just put out a book club kit for you to download.
