GOODREADS CHOICE AWARD WINNER: BEST MEMOIR & AUTOBIOGRAPHY
A laugh-and-cry-out-loud memoir from the beloved star of Netflix’s Queer Eye, Jonathan Van Ness, sharing never before told, deeply personal stories of growing up gay, transforming pain into positivity, and embracing what makes you gorgeously different.
Who gave Jonathan Van Ness permission to be the radiant human he is today? No one, honey.
The truth is, it hasn’t always been gorgeous for this beacon of positivity and joy.
Before he stole our hearts as the grooming and self-care expert on Netflix’s hit show Queer Eye, Jonathan was growing up in a small Midwestern town that didn’t understand why he was so . . . over the top. From choreographed carpet figure skating routines to the unavoidable fact that he was Just. So. Gay., Jonathan was an easy target and endured years of judgement, ridicule and trauma—yet none of it crushed his uniquely effervescent spirit.
Over the Top uncovers the pain and passion it took to end up becoming the model of self-love and acceptance that Jonathan is today. In this revelatory, raw, and rambunctious memoir, Jonathan shares never-before-told secrets and reveals sides of himself that the public has never seen. JVN fans may think they know the man behind the stiletto heels, the crop tops, and the iconic sayings, but there’s much more to him than meets the Queer Eye.
You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll come away knowing that no matter how broken or lost you may be, you’re a Kelly Clarkson song, you’re strong, and you’ve got this.

Es un libro muy franco, fuerte y divertido. La historia de Jonathan es difícil de escuchar sin sentir un hueco en el estómago, pero te ayuda a entender la importancia de ser una misma y la valentía que eso implica. Lo mismo te arranca lágrimas que carcajadas e incluye una carta que escribió en su niñez al infiel Bill Clinton que es una joya. Recomiendo este libro ampliamente. Entretiene, enseña, conmueve, divierte y reconforta a la vez.

Soy fan de Jonathan 😍 y su historia es conmovedora y motivadora. Es un relato de resiliencia narrado por su autor con su estilo tan particular que emana de su personal LGTBQ+ 🏳️🌈. Me hizo reír 😂 y me hizo llorar 😪. Me encantó ❤️.
