Absolutely lovely collection of essays from a wide variety of lived experiences. Left me feeling very glad to be trans.

This was a very informative book but at times it was hard to get through. It was refreshing to read a book about gender euphoria, because too often we just hear only about trans pain.

I really enjoyed hearing about trans joy, points and moments of euphoria in a diverse group of gender identities, sexualities, ages, ethnicities and cultural backgrounds. I enjoyed hearing the different voices and writing styles. Unfortunately it did take me a while to read because of the self contained essays, you didn’t necessarily have an immediate need to go to the next, I wish that the book maybe had parts or ordered them based on similarities in the stories/essays. But as always I love hearing and learning about different trans people’s experiences and seeing how they both differ and relate to mine. Trans and queer joy is infectious 🏳️‍⚧️

While I would have loved to read stories by *even more* people (maybe instead of reading multiple stories by one author), this was great. I loved reading this book, thank you.
