Gina Frangello Books in Order

Kirby challenges a former psychiatrist's account of her family by drawing on her twin sister Kendra's private journals. Revisiting their relationship and her own failed therapy, she confronts sexuality, illness, and the power to define another person's story.

These stories follow people whose intimate choices expose tensions around sexuality, class, gender, and family. A commitment ceremony, an abusive home, chronic pain, and social decline reveal characters negotiating desire, betrayal, vulnerability, and the consequences of survival.

After her friend Nix's death, Mary returns to Europe seeking answers about their estrangement during a Greek holiday. Living with cystic fibrosis, she travels through relationships that challenge her understanding of friendship, identity, and freedom.

A gay couple's plan to have a baby connects three families through an egg donor and surrogate. As the birth approaches, an affair and long-concealed personal history strain friendships, raising questions about desire, loyalty, and belonging.

Gina Frangello recounts an affair that destabilized her marriage and the family life she had built after a difficult childhood. Her memoir examines grief, desire, maternal expectations, and the cultural pressures surrounding women's autonomy and transgression.
