Characters misgender Oliver throughout, but the narration never does. The author has written excellent notes/warning in the book. Read with care, but the book contains trans joy :)

This felt like a book for straight people. I strongly disliked Anne for the constant misgendering and hurt she was causing. And at the end it sort of congratulating herself on how far she’d come. But without really acknowledging the harm she’d done to Alex.
