Get ready to tear up. As a queer person who is and has been in a relationship with afab and amab trans* people/nonbinary folks, this book hit me hard without having had to experience the struggle with gender and dysphoria on my own skin. I understood and lived through the pain of violence and hate crime, because that I understand. 
The History that accompanies the story is simply beautiful. I loved this book.

Fuck capitalism, fuck white supremacy, fuck the police. Incredibly rewarding read, even if it’s excruciatingly painful sometimes.

This book has been sitting in my to-read list for a while, and I decided to download the pdf as the summer had started. I have rarely put it down since the moment I picked it up. I devoured it instantaneously. Something I like about this book is that its raw, its real. It spares little from the truth. I wish that everyone would read this book, it shows so many things that are very well still applicable to the current day. My jaw dropped when I finished it, I didn't want it to end. This is definitely going to be one of my favourite books from now on, and I'm thankful for having crossed paths with it.
