Chasten Buttigieg, I HAVE SOMETHING TO TELL YOU - FOR YOUNG ADULTS: A Memoir

Zibby is joined by New York Times bestselling author Chasten Buttigieg to discuss I Have Something to Tell You–For Young Adults: A Memoir, a poignant, charming, and joyful adaptation of his bestselling memoir about growing up gay in a small, conservative Midwestern town and slowly learning to embrace his identity. Chasten reveals he wrote the book he wishes he’d had growing up and then shares some of his difficult childhood memories. He also shares his first coming-out story, his experiences connecting with teachers and LGBTQ+ youth on the presidential campaign trail, the joy of being a new dad, and the children’s book he is working on now!Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3M6a7R5Subscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.** Want more?
