This was a really interesting perspective of the trans journey from both an individual who has transitioned and an individual who detransitioned. There are discussions of class, race, and LGBTQ issues artfully interwoven into a heartfelt story of womanhood. I really enjoyed the characters and their internal explorations. These parts highlighted many of the challenges experienced by trans people as they discover themselves and take action to rectify injustice.
