The irreverent and candid coming-of-age memoir of Nicole Maines, trailblazing trans actress, activist-and sometimes someone whos just existing, which is actually pretty hard!Nicole Maines knows a little something about "happily ever after"-not just because shes a self-professed expert in the Disney princess canon, but because shes lived it. After coming out at an early age, her family had not only to educate themselves, but also those around them as they fought and won a landmark court case in the state of Maine before she graduated high school. She made it into college, got the guy, and finally had The Surgery™. She achieved her lifelong goal of becoming an actress when she landed a major role in the CWs Supergirl, playing televisions very first live-action transgender superhero.Cue sappy music and sunsets, because weve got ourselves a happy ending, right?Ha! As if.For the first time, in her own words, Nicole tells the story of her journey from childhood in rural Maine to the spotlights of Hollywood, sharing the lessons shes learned along the way. With clever wit and unflinching honesty, she tackles some of the most insidious messaging absorbed by queer kids and all young women, from the idea that any one thing can (or should) ever really "fix" you, to wondering whats wrong with you when things dont always feel better, and reminding us that, sometimes, a happy ending is only the beginning of the story. Author Biography Nicole Maines is an award-winning actress, writer, and transgender rights activist. She was the anonymous plaintiff in the Maine Supreme Judicial Court case Doe v. Regional School Unit 26, in which she argued her school district could not deny her access to the female bathroom for being transgender and won, the first such ruling by a state court. That case and her familys story was the focus of Amy Ellis Nutts bestseller Becoming Nicole. As an actress, Maines played Nia Nal/Dreamer on the CWs hit series Supergirl and Lisa in Showtimes Yellowjackets. Details ISBN 0593243129 ISBN-13 9780593243121 Title It Gets Better . . .
