Overview
āA master class of tone and tenderness.ā āThe New York Times Book Review (Editorsā Choice)
āShould be required reading.ā āLos Angeles Times
The first time someone called John Paul (JP) Brammer āPapiā was on the gay hookup app Grindr. At first, it was flattering; JP took this as white-guy speak for āhey, handsome.ā But then it happened again and againā¦and again, leaving JP wondering: Who the hell is Papi?
Soon, this racialized moniker became the inspiration for his now wildly popular advice column āĀ”Hola Papi!,ā launching his career as the Cheryl Strayed for young queer people everywhereāand some straight people too. JP had his doubts at firstāwhat advice could he really offer while he himself stumbled through his early twenties? Sometimes the best advice comes from looking within, which is what JP does in his column and bookāand readers have flocked to him for honest, heartfelt wisdom, and more than a few laughs.
In this hilarious, tenderhearted book, JP shares his story of growing up biracial and in the closet in Americaās heartland, while attempting to answer some of lifeās most challenging questions: How do I let go of the past? How do I become the person I want to be? Is there such a thing as being too gay? Should I hook up with my grade school bully now that heās out of the closet? Questions weāve all asked ourselves, surely.
Ā”Hola Papi! is āa warm, witty compendium of hard-won life lessons,ā (Harperās Bazaar) for anyoneāgay, straight, and everything in betweenāwho has ever taken stock of their unique place in the world.
