The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big DifferenceThe tipping point is that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire. Just as a single sick person can start an epidemic of the flu, so too can a small but precisely targeted push cause a fashion trend, the popularity of a new product, or a drop in the crime rate.

Partly still thought-provoking, partly dated
Format: Paperback
Dr. Wittig had so much anger, and had such a fight to fight. She seems excessive at times, or as though she is painting with such a broad brush, but writing such as this did win some important battles. No, things are not as dark as her wrath would suggest, or at least not anymore.

You will laugh and cry
Format: Kindle
Luckily, I stumbled into a link to this book on Transfeminine Review. One warning: take your eye makeup off before reading. You will laugh till you cry and that is not a good look with mascara.
The plot resembles the movie American Fiction. Pearl is an aspiring trans woman writer. Her first novel has sunk without a trace so now she is going to try something more commercial: a gay male romance with James Bond action marketed to straight women who love that kind of thing. She's even adopting a pen name as Paul Sisters, s gay man.
For a time it works. She has a publisher, Muzzle And Escutcheon is selling well and "Paul" has a fan following. Still, it's getting harder and harder to maintain her fake identity and she's having to make ever more compromises with her own identity and relationships.
One other caution. Pearl does have to deal with casual transphobia. One sequence of her doing an online chat as Paul with transphobic fans and trying not to let it get to her I foundto be particularly triggering
Good, funny, recommended

Brilliantly written
Format: Kindle
I read this in a single sitting, mesmerized. I cared about the protagonist even as she made increasingly bad and soul damaging decisions. I love love love her girlfriend and her roommate is also fun. One could argue that the humorous elements convey the dangers of being a trans woman in both publishing and life especially well. I also enjoyed the publishing scene aspects like in Yellowface. A great read. I’m now a fan!
