Detransition, Baby by Torrey Peters

4.0

Detransition, Baby is my second read by Torrey Peters, and I've enjoyed both books (the other one was Infect Your Friends and Loved Ones)! This book is funny, complicated, sad, and chaotic in a good way. The characters are well-rounded and unlikeable in the best way - they are messy, but I was rooting for them. I couldn't put the book down. Sometimes the tangents make it hard to keep track of things, but it worked out well enough. I'm not sure how I feel about the ending, but this was still such a good read. I'm looking forward to seeing what Torrey Peters does next!
