Detransition, Baby by Torrey Peters
4.5
emotional informative reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

 Original and captivating, Detransition, Baby gives us a glimpse into a world most people have no access to. Unafraid of calling out the ‘oppression Olympics’ culture and some of the excesses of identity politics, it shines a light onto the lives and traumas of people from one of the most marginalised groups in society. 
 
Despite the relative buzz on social media, I can’t help but think it deserves more recognition. 9/10
