Paris Lees is a journalist, model, and now a published author.

Known for being the first transgender columnist for Vogue, What if Feels Like for a Girl is a memoir of her formative years in Hucknall, Nottingham. It's even written in a Hucknall dialect!

Paris Lees' book is remarkable. It's an uplifting and empowering memoir of self-identity. It's smart, witty, and authentic. However, it's also filled with immense sadness, including stories of physical & emotional abuse.

There are very few books that make you want to laugh, cry, despair, cringe, and shout out for joy all in one chapter, but What It Feels Like for a Girl is one of them.
