Downloading 365 Days of Becoming (PDF)
At 34, Reilly knows something has to give. Newly embracing her identity as a later-in-life lesbian in New York City, she commits to a full year without dating—a personal challenge to finally get her life together. But what begins as a simple break from relationships soon becomes a deeply personal journey of healing, growth, and rediscovery.
Set against the backdrop of city life, friendship circles, and unexpected moments of vulnerability, 365 Days of Becoming is a raw, emotionally honest fictional memoir that explores identity, LGBTQ+ coming-of-age, self-love, and what it means to truly trust yourself. As Reilly confronts old patterns, navigates the highs and lows of her career and friendships, and wrestles with the pull of her past, she learns that becoming your most authentic self is anything but a straight line.
Perfect for readers who love lesbian fiction, LGBTQ+ women’s fiction, sapphic stories, and character-driven narratives filled with heart, humor, and hard-won wisdom.
