"That's the thing about trans joy. It can never be fully extinguished. People can try to narrow the possibilities for our lives, even end them. But our spirits will always expand to fill whatever space we are given. We will find the power in us. "

What a spectacular memoir! Filled with trans joy with an emphasis on the privilege of being stealth and how being stealth is a form of safety and protection for many trans people. I'm so grateful to have read this and to now know about Geena, a Filipino trans woman and model and her impact on the trans community especially to trans women across the world.

The audiobook was great and includes sound effects and ambience.
