I knew Jon Kinnally could make me laugh from years of working with him on Will & Grace, but I didnt know he could make me cry too. Dammit, Jon! What a beautiful, open hearted, hilarious book. If I were the kind of person who read a book a second time I would consider doing it with this one. -- Gary Janetti, New York Times bestselling author of Do You Mind If I Cancel? I laughed my ass off, and cried my heart out. Can this please be required reading for homophobes? Its a grand salute to the artistry and whimsical talent of the gay world. Without them, we would be so boring. Thank you, Jon, and all the others, including my brother and sister. -- Penelope Spheeris, director of The Decline of Western Civilization and Waynes World These stories are rich, and the one-liners are unforgettable! -- Gabrielle Hamilton, New York Times bestselling author of Blood, Bones, & Butter: The Inadvertent Education of a Reluctant Chef Like the greatest storytellers, Kinnally was able to make me laugh out loud on one page before ripping my heart out on the next. Hilarious, true, poignant, necessary! There isnt a person on earth (and maybe three or four other inhabited planets) that shouldnt read this book ASAP! -- Blair Fell, author of the award-winning The Sign For Home and Disco Witches of Fire Island Jons gut-funny and heart-felt account of pushing himself to be straight in adolescence then finding his gay soulmate in New York Citys vibrant, 80s art scene amidst the looming AIDS crisis is both poignant and triumphant. Youd have to be a myopic, fully clenched, elder Republic**t to deny yourself this read. -- Laura Kightlinger, Stand-up comedian, writer Ive been friends with Jon forever so I can say this: Reading his book is like talking to that weird aunt you get stuck with at a family reunion only to discover shes the most interesting person there. Both hilarious and heartfeltI loved it. Highly recommended! -- Miss Coco
