Pickpick

This memoir has all the feels. Once you finish, you‘ll have plenty of talking points for your next discussion on trans equality and human rights. But mostly you‘ll appreciate McBride for all her advocacy work, even amidst plenty of personal drama and challenge. She‘s an inspiration!

I needed a pause from the International Booker (a storyline, human characters, that sort of thing). This was a quick read, but by it‘s own admission it was A LOT: Friendships, sexuality, eating disorders, self-harm and a disapproving seal, all in a VERY recognisable faded seaside small town. I didn‘t love the writing, but liked the main characters & loved the setting. Probably just more YA than I can handle really. #BBRC #TeenAngst #ByATransAuthor

rockpools @Cathythoughts Thank you! I need to up the number of tacky seaside town photos on my phone, though. This book really called for a photo of the dinosaur crazy golf course!! 4y
Andrew65 Well done 👏👏👏 4y

Found this short book while exploring the Audible Plus catalog. Just about 20 min in and it is fascinating. I had no idea Afghan parents could choose a daughter to live like a son. #readingasia2021 #afghanistan

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Sounds great! 4y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Riveted_Reader_Melissa It is unique. I‘m not sure if it‘s truly a trans author, though. Will finalize when I finish. 4y
Librarybelle Sounds very interesting! 4y
