This is a brilliant book, I really enjoyed it. A collection of essays by nineteen trans, non-binary, agender, gender-fluid and intersex writers, describing the multi-faceted ways they find joy in simply being themselves.

Enjoy!
Very colourful, very fast read. Perfect for people who don't read that much. So if you want to educate your friends or family about non-binary identities, this is the book to go to. Aloks takes the most famous arguments against non-binary people and breaks them down. Not a lot of new stuff for me, but definitely an important book 🏳️🌈
I got to meet this amazing soul last night at the opening event for my local book festival!!
More satire and less horror than I expected, this was painfully real in its portrayal of immature tech bro masculinity and so-called allies who can't be bothered to get something as simple as someone's pronouns right. It had me cringing. I loved Sammie as a character and the art style was fun! #TransBooks #QueerBooks #HorrorBooks

I think this is an important book, the messy emotions and queer family structure highlighted are all true, but I struggled with it a bit. Accepting the decisions the three of them had come to was … I didn‘t really believe it.
I saw myself a lot in Ames, their trauma, struggles with dissociation. It was hard to sit with and see on the page. I‘m not trans, but as a queer person I struggled a lot.

I'd be surprised if the first words that come to mind have not been used many times before to descirbe this work: Powerful, heartbreaking, infuriating, a nuanced and needed perspective, a must read.
It is enervating that the battle for transgender people to be seen, respected, understood, fully embraced, needs to continue in the face of much prejudice and hate, but I'm glad to experience such a vital voice as Vivek's pushing the conversation 1/?
#WhereAreYouMonday takes me to my current home city of NYC! I love reading about where I live or where I‘m going to travel.
The familiarity of the place and feeling you get when you have a deeper understanding of a place is something I love.
Back on the train for an hour on the way to New Haven!
This has been on my kindle for a while so started it this morning!
