I want to be absolutely clear:

- This book and books like it existing = Infinity/5
- I do recommend this book, especially for trans adolescents, with the caveat of checking the content warnings and the understanding that this book, like the protagonist, is flawed and inconsistent.
- The last thing I want to do is put anyone off reading this book (unless due to the CWs), I simply want to share my thoughts and to temper expectations for a more enjoyable experience.
- As flawed and inconsistent as I find this book to be and my own personal issues with some aspects, it is a heartfelt, beautiful, important work.
- The more art means something to me and I like, care about, and respect it and its creator, the more critical I am. I can't help it.
- I think Queer/ trans art needs to be treated with the respect, integrity, and criticism of any other art.
- I am Queer, Genderqueer, and extremely neurodivergent.

For now, this book is important and beautiful, as well as flawed and inconsistent.

The narration by Logon Rozos is sheer perfection. No notes.… (lisätietoja)
