 The concept of this book is great but the execution was poor. Focus really on the basics of trans thing through each, hormones, and surgery, rather than how the teen lives their life while also happening to be trans. Because if you are trans wanting to read about other trans lives you're going to already know what the basics are. The audience wasn't for the community it was for those who wanted to dive into personal questions that is a doc and trans person should be having. I would have liked this book more if it was focused on the lives of trans teen rather than what are they doing to further their transition, How about getting into their bobbies and other nontransrealted and if the fact that they are trans as caused opticals bring that up rather then each story be on getting on hormones.
