An enjoyable and worthwhile read. I felt like there were some parts that were a bit boring, and I really did not like the last 2 or so chapters. There were some really engaging chapters in this book, but I feel like the end of the book is what is putting it out of 5 stars for me. I don't think is quite 4 stars, but it certainly is not 3 stars.

I would give this book a perfect score however it was very hard read, all the way through. As a trans person it grapples with a lot of thoughts I personally experienced, in one way or another. Reliving that was challenging and cathartic. As a very general trigger warning if you are going to read this don’t force it; take breaks if you need it and pick it up when you feel ready.

This was an incredible read. A book written for trans people, not to explain trans people to the world. Deeply flawed but loveable characters who make mistakes and hurt each other, but with an undercurrent of love.
