A great collection of poems about trans joy, that is both inspiring and hopeful. I had a great time reading it but I wpuld maybe reccommend dipping in and out rather than reading it front to back, just to extend the experience with these great poems.

We need more books like this, and more queer books by queer people, always.

This book of poetry has a big focus on trans joy (in the afterword, Melt mentions how challenging this was as most trans literature they’ve read focuses more on pain/violence that trans people experience). Melt spends a good chunk of this book imagining what a fully liberated trans world would look like, from the politics to interpersonal relationships and communities to how individuals feel about themselves. It’s so full of hope for what the future could look like despite the oppression that has been faced in the past and continues to be faced presently by trans people. There’s also a study guide at the end along with lots of other recommended works that I’ll definitely be looking in to!
