This was an easy 5 star one- absolutely exceptional, riveting, thought provoking and compassionate. I learned a lot about trans culture and terminology while understanding more fully the scope of dilemmas and difficulties the trans community face while accepting their identity, transitioning and onward. It also gave me a lot of things to think about in regards to gender, motherhood and what make me like the things that I like and desire the things I desire, and also recognize some things I take for granted in my own womanhood, if that's what you call it.
Will probs revisit this book again in the future. Have already managed to recommend this two all my classmates in a course I'm taking on sexuality.
