lucrezi 's review for:

Detransition, Baby by Torrey Peters
4.0
emotional reflective
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

truly interesting, empathic depictions of parenthood and the manifestations of desire

the chapter where all 3 of them interact for the first time is so Contrapoints-coded, i can't help loving it especially when Katrina interjects to remind Reese there are other perspectives aside from the white one. we probably could've explored race a bit more if i'm being honest, but i liked this overall!
