Boy Like Me

A Boy Like Me is the first anthology from openly gender fluid and LGBT+-identified artist Reki* who is also a recording artist based in Los Angeles, California. The collection of poetry and prose is primarily a firsthand narrative of what it means to be feminine within the community when concerning dating and romance, society at large, and sometimes within family and platonic ties and circles. Other themes include heartbreak, day-to-day testimonies that reveal to the reader how alike many of us are, and his mothers untimely death. A Boy Like Me is a piece of literature geared toward liberation of the femmes within the LGBT+ community that are ceaselessly tempted to silence by outside forces and, many times, by our own.
