Alas, a long and hectic business trip came between me and reading for about a week. But I did read one entire novel that's worth mentioning: Trans-sister Radio, by Chris Bohjalian. It has a great plot--very hard to put down--and is thought-provoking, too. A woman gets involved with a man just before he is scheduled for sex-change surgery. This book will really get you thinking about gender and sexual preference. I recommend it highly as long as you aren't squeamish about those issues.
