📚 This was a very touching story with a lot of emotional moments. I enjoyed the vignettes and the whole thing was very affirming, particularly of trans lives. And eldest daughter syndrome transcending gender is the realest.
🎧 Single POV, 3rd person, one trans masc narrator.
🌶️ 1.5/5 There was technically some sexytimes on page, but all the details were obfuscated and it wasn't at all spicy the way it was done, more factual.
✊🏽🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ There's a lot of good representation in this book. The MC is a bisexual trans man. He and his family members are Jewish and have pretty deep roots in the Jewish community and customs. So is his love interest. Amongst the MC's friends, we have trans, lesbian, gay, and ace representation. I think sooner of those friends are POC but I don't remember the specifics.
