I had read a lot of reviews about this book, many of which gave it high praise, so I think I went into this one with high expectations. Unfortunately, I wish I had liked it more... I'd been meaning to pick this one up for a while, but finally found some motivation since it was the June pick for Bad Bitch Book Club. This is the second transgender "family memoir" I have read this year and I think what I have learned is that I would probably rather hear these stories from trans folks instead. All in all, it was fine, I liked it enough to finish it because I wanted to see how it ended, but I didn't love it like I thought I would.
