By: Pete CrightonA poignant, funny, and lively memoir of sexual awakening, music, and discovering one's true self.
Pete Crighton came of age in the early/mid 1980s in the shadow of HIV/AIDS. Growing up in Toronto, he was terrified that his friends and schoolmates would find out that he was “different” at a time when being gay felt like a death sentence. His only comfort was music, the songs a balm to his painful adolescence.
Struggling to make sense of his sexuality and fear of the disease stifled Crighton as a sexual being. Instead of exploring sex, he began curating a massive music library. He then took what he thought was a safe path and entered into two long-term monogamous relationships, both doomed to fail. Finally, in his 40s, Crighton decided to ignore his fear and live his queer life to the fullest.
The Vinyl Diaries is the story of Crighton’s mid-life sexual awakening. From one-night trysts to friendships resulting from app-based hookups, Crighton is honest and unapologetic as he chronicles the pursuit of his erotic desires. Each new connection and lover is linked to an artist, song, or album from his vast collection and backdrops the stories Crighton tells about his life, interconnected with the artists' work and histories. Kate Bush, the B-52s, Prince, The Smiths, Yoko Ono, and Stevie Nicks are just a few of the artists who provide an extraordinary soundtrack to Crighton’s adventures.
Big-hearted, funny, thoughtful, and wildly entertaining, The Vinyl Diaries is a celebration of sex, music and the discovery of our true selves.

Practical, Engaging, and Worth Every Penny
Format: Paperback
I’ve read a few Figma books, but this one stands out because of how engaging and hands-on it is. It’s written in a way that makes you feel like you’re learning from a mentor, not just reading a manual. The exercises are practical, and the step-by-step approach makes even complex concepts easy to grasp.
I also loved the section on integrating plugins and designing responsively for multiple devices—it’s these little details that make a big difference in real-world design work.

Really learn Figma!
Format: Paperback
I was transitioning from graphic design to UI/UX, and I needed something that would teach me Figma while helping me build a solid portfolio. This book did exactly that! The real-world projects and case studies were super helpful—I even used one of them as a portfolio piece during a job interview.
It’s not just about learning the tool; it’s about understanding how to design better user experiences. The productivity tips and shortcuts alone saved me so much time.
